Bounded Model Checking (BMC) techniques have been used for formal hardware verification, with the help of tools such as GRASP (Generic search Algorithm for Satisfiability Proble...
Multi-agent systems are an increasingly important software paradigm and in many of its applications agents cooperate to achieve a particular goal. This requires the design of effi...

The Murϕ-based Hopper tool is a general purpose explicit model checker. Hopper leverages Murϕ’s class structure to implement new algorithms. Hopper differs from Murϕ in that i...
There is a growing recognition of the need to apply formal mathematical methods in the design of \high con dence" computing systems. Such systems operate in safety critical co...
We present a method of distributed model checking of multiagent systems specified by a branching-time temporal-epistemic logic. We introduce a serial algorithm, central to the dis...
