Practical model-checking using games

P Stevens, C Stirling - International Conference on Tools and Algorithms …, 1998 - Springer
We describe how model-checking games can be the foundation for efficient local model-
checking of the modal mu-calculus on transition systems. Game-based algorithms generate …

Incremental model checking in the modal mu-calculus

OV Sokolsky, SA Smolka - … : 6th International Conference, CAV'94 Stanford …, 1994 - Springer
We present an incremental algorithm for model checking in the alternation-free fragment of
the modal mu-calculus, the first incremental algorithm for model checking of which we are …

Local model checking games

C Stirling - International conference on concurrency theory, 1995 - Springer
Model checking is a very successful technique for verifying temporal properties of finite state
concurrent systems. It is standard to view this method as essentially algorithmic, and …

Model checking for context-free processes

O Burkart, B Steffen - International Conference on Concurrency Theory, 1992 - Springer
We develop a model-checking algorithm that decides for a given context-free process
whether it satisfies a property written in the alternation-free modal mu-calculus. The central …

Faster model checking for the modal mu-calculus

R Cleaveland, M Klein, B Steffen - … , CAV'92 Montreal, Canada, June 29 …, 1993 - Springer
In this paper, we develop an algorithm for model checking that handles the full modal
mucalculus including alternating fixpoints. Our algorithm has a better worst-case complexity …

Local model checking for infinite state spaces

J Bradfield, C Stirling - Theoretical Computer Science, 1992 - Elsevier
We present a sound and complete tableau proof system for establishing whether a set of
elements of an arbitrary transition system model has a property expressed in (a slight …

Efficient local model-checking for fragments of the modal μ-calculus

G Bhat, R Cleaveland - International Workshop on Tools and Algorithms …, 1996 - Springer
This paper develops efficient local model-checking algorithms for expressive fragments of
the modal Μ-calculus. The time complexity of our procedures matches that of the best …

Partial-order reduction in the weak modal mu-calculus

YS Ramakrishna, SA Smolka - International Conference on Concurrency …, 1997 - Springer
We present a partial-order reduction technique for local model checking of hierarchical
networks of labeled transition systems in the weak modal mu-calculus. We have …

Computing behavioural relations, logically

R Cleaveland, B Steffen - … International Colloquium Madrid, Spain, July 8 …, 1991 - Springer
This paper develops a model-checking algorithm for a fragment of the modal mu-calculus
and shows how it may be applied to the efficient computation of behavioral relations …

Model checking the full modal mu-calculus for infinite sequential processes

O Burkart, B Steffen - Theoretical Computer Science, 1999 - Elsevier
It is known that pushdown processes have a decidable monadic second-order theory (Muller
and Schupp, Theoret. Comput. Sci. 37 (1985) 51–; 75) and that this result covers the model …
