Automated Parallelization of Discrete State-space Generation by David M. Nicol Pdf

Abstract: "We consider the problem of generating a large state-space in a distributed fashion. Unlike previously proposed solutions that partition the set of reachable states according to a hashing function provided by the user, we explore heuristic methods that completely automate the process. The first step is an initial random walk through the state space to initialize a search tree, duplicated in each processor. Then, the reachability graph is built in a distributed way, using the search tree to assign each newly found state to classes assigned to the available processors. Furthermore, we explore two remapping criteria that attempt to balance memory usage or future workload, respectively. We show how the cost of computing the global snapshot required for remapping will scale up for system sizes in the forseeable future. An extensive set of results is presented to support our conclusions that remapping is extremely beneficial."

Reachability Problems by Parosh Aziz Abdulla,Igor Potapov Pdf

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Reachability Problems, RP 2013, held in Uppsala, Sweden, in September 2013. The 19 revised papers (The 14 revised papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions in addition to 5 invited talks) were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. Topics of interest include reachability for finite state systems; rewriting systems, reachability analysis in counter/timed/cellular/communicating automata; Petri-nets; computational aspects of semigroups, groups and rings; reachability in dynamical and hybrid systems; frontiers between decidable and undecidable reachability problems; complexity and decidability aspects, predictability in iterative maps and new computational paradigms.

Lectures on Formal Methods and Performance Analysis by Ed Brinksma,Holger Hermanns,Joost-Pieter Katoen Pdf

Traditionally, models and methods for the analysis of the functional correctness of reactive systems, and those for the analysis of their performance (and - pendability) aspects, have been studied by di?erent research communities. This has resulted in the development of successful, but distinct and largely unrelated modeling and analysis techniques for both domains. In many modern systems, however, the di?erence between their functional features and their performance properties has become blurred, as relevant functionalities become inextricably linked to performance aspects, e.g. isochronous data transfer for live video tra- mission. During the last decade, this trend has motivated an increased interest in c- bining insights and results from the ?eld of formal methods – traditionally - cused on functionality – with techniques for performance modeling and analysis. Prominent examples of this cross-fertilization are extensions of process algebra and Petri nets that allow for the automatic generation of performance models, the use of formal proof techniques to assess the correctness of randomized - gorithms, and extensions of model checking techniques to analyze performance requirements automatically. We believe that these developments markthe - ginning of a new paradigm for the modeling and analysis of systems in which qualitative and quantitative aspects are studied from an integrated perspective. We are convinced that the further worktowards the realization of this goal will be a growing source of inspiration and progress for both communities.

Formal Methods at the Crossroads. From Panacea to Foundational Support by Bernhard K. Aichernig,Thomas S. E. Maibaum Pdf

This volume is devoted to the 10th Anniversary Colloquium of UNU/IIST, the International Institute for Software Technology of the United Nations University, as well as to the memory of Armando Haeberer, who passed away while he was working on the preparation of this book in February 2003. The volume starts with a special paper by Tom Maibaum recollecting Armando Haeberer's life and work. The second part presents work done by members of UNU/IIST as well as a paper on the history of the institute. The subsequent topical sections present key contributions by leading researchers and thus assess the state of the art in software engineering and its engineering and scientific principles, from models to software, real-time systems, and verification. All in all, the book is a unique survey of the power and potential of formal methods in software engineering.
