Electronic institutions are a formalism to define and analyse protocols among agents with a view to achieving global and individual goals. In this paper we propose a definition of ...
We consider the formal verification of the cache coherence protocol of the Stanford FLASH multiprocessor for N processors. The proof uses the SMV proof assistant, a proof system ba...
