Rapid development in hardware industry has brought the prevalence of multi-core systems with shared-memory, which enabled the speedup of various tasks by using parallel algorithms....
For successful software verification, model checkers must be capable of handling a large number of program variables. Traditional, BDD-based model checking is deficient in this reg...
The main limitation of software model checking is that, due to state explosion, it does not scale to real-world multi-threaded programs. One of the reasons is that current software...
Given a 3-valued abstraction of a program (possibly generated using rogram analysis and predicate abstraction) and a temporal logic formula, generalized model checking (GMC) checks...
Bounded model checking (BMC) is an automatic verification method that is based on a finite unfolding of the system’s transition relation. BMC has been successfully applied, in ...
