Testing cannot cover all execution schedules in concurrent software. Model checking, however, is capable of verifying the outcome of all possible executions. It has been applied s...
Knowledge-based programs provide an abstract level of description of protocols in which agent actions are related to their states of knowledge. The paper describes how epistemic mo...
Future Interval Logic (FIL) and its intuitive graphical representation, Graphical Interval Logic (GIL), can be used as the formal description language of model checking tools to v...
We consider graph properties that can be checked from labels, i.e., bit sequences, of logarithmic length attached to vertices. We prove that there exists such a labeling for check...

The key problem in applying verification techniques such as model checking to agent architectures is to show how to map systematically from an agent program to a model structure t...
