While the classic model checking problem is to decide whether a finite system satisfies a specification, the goal of parameterized model checking is to decide, given finite systems (n) parameterized by n , whether, for all n , the system (n) satisfies a specification. In this book we consider the important case of (n) being a concurrent system, where the number of replicated processes depends on the parameter n but each process is independent of n. Examples are cache coherence protocols, networks of finite-state agents, and systems that solve mutual exclusion or scheduling problems. Further examples are abstractions of systems, where the processes of the original systems actually depend on the parameter. The literature in this area has studied a wealth of computational models based on a variety of synchronization and communication primitives, including token passing, broadcast, and guarded transitions. Often, different terminology is used in the literature, and results are based on implicit assumptions. In this book, we introduce a computational model that unites the central synchronization and communication primitives of many models, and unveils hidden assumptions from the literature. We survey existing decidability and undecidability results, and give a systematic view of the basic problems in this exciting research area.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 26th International Conference on Computer Aided Verification, CAV 2014, held as part of the Vienna Summer of Logic, VSL 2014, in Vienna, Austria, in July 2014. The 46 regular papers and 11 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 175 regular and 54 short paper submissions. The contributions are organized in topical sections named: software verification; automata; model checking and testing; biology and hybrid systems; games and synthesis; concurrency; SMT and theorem proving; bounds and termination; and abstraction.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed conference proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Trusted Systems, INTRUST 2013, held in Graz, Austria, in December 2013. The revised full papers focus on the theory, technologies and applications of trusted systems. They cover all aspects of trusted computing systems, including trusted modules, platforms, networks, services and applications, from their fundamental features and functionalities to design principles, architecture and implementation technologies.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Verified Software, VSTTE 2021, and the 14th International Workshop on Numerical Software Verification, NSV 2021, held online, in July/ October 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually.There were 10 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 20 submissions. The papers focuses on challenges of the verification of cyber-physical systems with machine learning components and making large-scale verified software a practical reality and much more.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Haifa Verification Conference, HVC 2016, held in Haifa, Israel in November 2016. The 13 revised full papers and one tool paper presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. They are dedicated to advance the state of the art and state of the practice in verification and testing and are discussing future directions of testing and verification for hardware, software, and complex hybrid systems.
Model checking is a computer-assisted method for the analysis of dynamical systems that can be modeled by state-transition systems. Drawing from research traditions in mathematical logic, programming languages, hardware design, and theoretical computer science, model checking is now widely used for the verification of hardware and software in industry. The editors and authors of this handbook are among the world's leading researchers in this domain, and the 32 contributed chapters present a thorough view of the origin, theory, and application of model checking. In particular, the editors classify the advances in this domain and the chapters of the handbook in terms of two recurrent themes that have driven much of the research agenda: the algorithmic challenge, that is, designing model-checking algorithms that scale to real-life problems; and the modeling challenge, that is, extending the formalism beyond Kripke structures and temporal logic. The book will be valuable for researchers and graduate students engaged with the development of formal methods and verification tools.
