Abstract Reasoning about the correctness of parallel and distributed systems requires
automated tools. By now, the mCRL2 toolset and language have been developed over a …

The concept of features provides an elegant way to specify families of systems. Given a base
system, features encapsulate additional functionalities that can be activated or deactivated …

Abstract A Featured Transition System (FTS) models the behaviour of all products of a
Software Product Line (SPL) in a single compact structure, by associating action-labelled …

This paper presents our approach to the quantitative modeling and analysis of highly (re)
configurable systems, such as software product lines. Different combinations of the optional …

QFLan offers modeling and analysis of highly reconfigurable systems, like product lines,
which are characterized by combinatorially many system variants (or products) that can be …

Family-based model checking targets the simultaneous verification of multiple system
variants, a technique to handle feature-based variability that is intrinsic to software product …

Many software systems are variational: they can be configured to meet diverse sets of
requirements. They can produce a (potentially huge) number of related systems, known as …

Variational systems are ubiquitous in many application areas today. They use features to
control presence and absence of system functionality. One challenge in the development of …

A Featured Transition System (FTS) is a formal behavioural model for software product lines,
which represents the behaviour of all the products of an SPL in a single compact structure by …

Modern system design often requires comparing several models over a large design space.
Different models arise out of a need to weigh different design choices, to check core …
