The main limitation of software model checking is that, due to state explosion, it does not scale to real-world multi-threaded programs. One of the reasons is that current software...
Truly successful models for component-based software development continue to prove elusive. One of the few is the use of operating system, database and similar programs in many sy...
Engineers use software tools to analyze designs for critical systems. Because important decisions are based on tool results, tools must provide valid modeling constructs; engineer...
Verification of chip multiprocessor memory systems remains challenging. While formal methods have been used to validate protocols, simulation is still the dominant method used to ...
