Component middleware provides dependable and efficient platforms that support key functional, and quality of service (QoS) needs of distributed real-time embedded (DRE) systems. C...
We present an approach for applying symmetry reduction techniques to probabilistic model checking, a formal verification method for the quantitative analysis of systems with stocha...
Of special interest in formal verification are safety properties, which assert that the system always stays within some allowed region. Each safety property can be associated with...
We introduce streaming data string transducers that map input data strings to output data strings in a single left-to-right pass in linear time. Data strings are (unbounded) seque...
A significant part of the call processing software for Lucent's new PathStar access server [FSW98] was checked with automated formal verification techniques. The verification...
