Online privacy and security notices are rather ineffective: Very few people read them, and those who do find them difficult to understand and remember. How can we create privacy and security notices that are inviting, engaging, comprehensible, and memorable, even for users with dyslexia or a lower literacy level?

The COMICS Tool - Computing Minimal Counterexamples for DTMCs

This paper presents the tool COMICS 1.0, which performs model checking and generates counterexamples for DTMCs. For an input DTMC, COMICS computes an abstract system that carries the model checking information and uses this result to compute a critical subsystem, which induces a counterexample. This abstract subsystem can be refined and concretized hierarchically. The tool comes with a command ...
