Abstract. The complexity of distributed algorithms, such as state machine replication, motivates the use of formal methods to assist correctness verification. The design of the for...
Priorities are used to resolve conflicts such as in resource sharing and in safety designs. The use of priorities has become indispensable in real-time system design such as in s...
Threat modeling analyzes how an adversary might attack a system by supplying it with malicious data or interacting with it. The analysis uses a Data Flow Diagram (DFD) to describe...
Bounded Model Checking (BMC) relies on solving a sequence of highly correlated Boolean satisfiability (SAT) problems, each of which corresponds to the existence of counter-example...

This paper presents a novel technique for abstracting designs in order to increase the efficiency of formal property checking. Bounded Model Checking (BMC), using Satisfiability (...
