Backward Reachability of Array-based Systems by SMT solving: Termination and Invariant Synthesis
The safety of infinite state systems can be checked by a backward reachability procedure. For certain classes of systems, it is possible to prove the termination of the procedure ...

Iterating Transducers
Regular languages have proved useful for the symbolic state exploration of infinite state systems. They can be used to represent infinite sets of system configurations; the tran...

Integrating Reasoning About Ordinal Arithmetic into ACL2
Abstract. Termination poses one of the main challenges for mechanically verifying infinite state systems. In this paper, we develop a powerful and extensible framework based on th...

Widening Arithmetic Automata
Model checking of infinite state systems is undecidable, therefore, there are instances for which fixpoint computations used in infinite state model checkers do not converge. Gi...

Goal-Directed Invariant Synthesis for Model Checking Modulo Theories
We are interested in automatically proving safety properties of infinite state systems. We present a technique for invariant synthesis which can be incorporated in backward reacha...
