Distributed hard real-time systems require guaranteed communication. One common approach is to restrict network access by enforcing a time-division multiple access (TDMA) schedule...
Probability features increasingly often in software and hardware systems: it is used in distributed co-ordination and routing problems, to model fault-tolerance and performance, a...
Using model checking to verify that interaction protocols have given properties is widely recognized as an important issue in multiagent systems where autonomous and heterogeneous ...
There is significant room for improving users' experiences with model checking tools. An error trace produced by a model checker can be lengthy and is indicative of a symptom...
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 re...
