We examine modal and temporal logics for processes. In section 1 we introduce concurrent
processes as terms of an algebraic language comprising a few basic operators, as …

Event logs are one of the most important sources of digital evidence for forensic
investigation because they record essential activities on the system. In this paper, we …

Abstract Model checking is an automatic technique for verifying finite-state reactive systems,
such as sequential circuit designs and communication protocols. Specifications are …

Many different methods have been devised for automatically verifying finite state systems by
examining state-graph models of system behavior. These methods all depend on decision …

We describe a method for using abstraction to reduce the complexity of temporal-logic
model checking. Using techniques similar to those involved in abstract interpretation, we …

We describe a framework for compositional verification of finite-state processes. The
framework is based on two ideas: a subset of the logic CTL for which satisfaction is …

Search has been vital to artificial intelligence from the very beginning as a core technique in
problem solving. The authors present a thorough overview of heuristic search with a balance …

The Concurrency Workbench is an automated tool for analyzing networks of finite-state
processes expressed in Milner's Calculus of Communicating Systems. Its key feature is its …

In this paper we considered two different fragments of μ-calculus, logics L 1 and L 2. We
gave model checking algorithms for logics L 1 and L 2 which are of complexity O (m 2 n) …

In recent years, model checking has become an essential technique for the formal
verification of systems. With a clarity of presentation and its many illuminating examples, this …
