We apply the symbolic analysis principle to pushdown systems. We represent (possibly in nite) sets of con gurations of such systems by means of nite-state automata. In order to re...
Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a method for assessing cause-consequence relations between component faults and hazards that may occur during the lifetime of a system. ...
Model checking by exhaustive state space enumeration is one of the most developed analysis methods for distributed event systems. Its main problem—the size of the state spaces—...
Abstract. Model checking of real-time systems against Duration Calculus (DC) specifications requires the translation of DC formulae into automata-based semantics. The existing algo...

The notion that certain procedures are atomic provides a valuable partial specification for many multithreaded software systems. Several existing tools verify atomicity by showing...
