The model checker SPIN.

by Gerard J Holzmann - IEEE Trans. on Software Eng. , 1997
"... Abstract-SPIN is an efficient verification system for models of distributed software systems. It has been used to detect design errors in applications ranging from high-level descriptions of distributed algorithms to detailed code for controlling telephone exchanges. This paper gives an overview of ..."

HyTech: A Model Checker for Hybrid Systems

by Thomas A. Henzinger, Pei-Hsin Ho, Howard Wong-toi - Software Tools for Technology Transfer , 1997
"... A hybrid system is a dynamical system whose behavior exhibits both discrete and continuous change. A hybrid automaton is a mathematical model for hybrid systems, which combines, in a single formalism, automaton transitions for capturing discrete change with differential equations for capturing conti ..."

continuous change. HyTech is a symbolic model checker for linear hybrid automata, a subclass of hybrid automata that can be analyzed automatically by computing with polyhedral state sets. A key feature of HyTech is its ability to perform parametric analysis, i.e. to determine the values of design parameters

Certifying model checkers

by Kedar S. Namjoshi - Proc of CAV ’01 , 2001
"... Abstract. Model Checking is an algorithmic technique to determine whether a temporal property holds of a program. For linear time prop-erties, a model checker produces a counterexample computation if the check fails. This computation acts as a \certicate " of failure, as it can be checked easil ..."

PRISM: Probabilistic symbolic model checker

by Marta Kwiatkowska, Gethin Norman, David Parker , 2002
"... Abstract. In this paper we describe PRISM, a tool being developed at the University of Birmingham for the analysis of probabilistic systems. PRISM supports two probabilistic models: continuous-time Markov chains and Markov decision processes. Analysis is performed through model checking such systems ..."

The Maude LTL Model Checker

by Steven Eker, José Meseguer, Ambarish Sridharanarayanan , 2002
"... The Maude LTL model checker supports on-the-y explicit-state model checking of concurrent systems expressed as rewrite theories with performance comparable to that of current tools of that kind, such as SPIN. This greatly expands the range of applications amenable to model checking analysis. Besides ..."

Bebop: A Symbolic Model Checker for Boolean Programs

by Thomas Ball, Sriram K. Rajamani , 2000
"... We present the design, implementation and empirical evaluation of Bebop -- a symbolic model checker for boolean programs. Bebop represents control flow explicitly, and sets of states implicitly using BDDs. By harnessing the inherent modularity in procedural abstraction and exploiting the locality of ..."

Model Checkers in Software Testing

by Paul Ammann, Paul E. Black, Wei Ding - NIST-IR 6777, National Institute of Standards and Technology , 2002

This paper continues this tradition by exploring the role of model checkers in software testing. Model checkers were originally developed to ..."
