Inferring behavioral models (e.g., state machines) of software systems is an important element of re-engineering activities. Model inference techniques can be categorized as active or passive learning, constructing models by (dynamically) interacting with systems or (statically) analyzing traces, respectively. Application of those techniques in the industry is, however, hindered by the trade-off between learning time and completeness achieved (active learning) or by incomplete input logs (passive learning). We investigate the learning time/completeness achieved trade-off of active learning with a pilot study at ASML, provider of lithography systems for the semiconductor industry. To resolve the trade-off we advocate extending active learning with execution logs and passive learning results. We apply the extended approach to eighteen components used in ASML TWINSCAN lithography machines. Compared to …
