The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a standard for modeling dynamic systems. UML
behavioral state machines are used for modeling the dynamic behavior of object-oriented …

Abstract We present Spot 2.0, a C++ library with Python bindings and an assortment of
command-line tools designed to manipulate LTL and ω-automata in batch. New automata …

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 …

Abstract Evaluation of scientific contributions can be done in many different ways. For the
various research communities working on the verification of systems (software, hardware, or …

The formal analysis of critical systems is supported by a vast space of modelling formalisms
and tools. The variety of incompatible formats and tools however poses a significant …

Recent advances in Reinforcement Learning (RL) combined with Deep Learning (DL) have
demonstrated impressive performance in complex tasks, including autonomous driving. The …

In this paper, we present Theta, a configurable model checking framework. The goal of the
framework is to support the design, execution and evaluation of abstraction refinement …

Software model checking as well as runtime verification are verification techniques which
are widely used for checking temporal properties of software systems. Even though they are …

Decision diagrams, such as binary decision diagrams, multi-terminal binary decision
diagrams and multi-valued decision diagrams, play an important role in various fields. They …

Model checking has been used traditionally for finding violations of temporal properties.
Recently, testing or fuzzing approaches have also been applied to software systems to find …
