چکیده

We present a new distributed-memory algorithm for enumerative LTL modelchecking that is designed to be run on a cluster of workstations communicating via MPI. The detection of accepting cycles is based on computing maximal accepting predecessors and the subsequent decomposition of the graph into independent predecessor subgraphs induced by maximal accepting predecessors. Several optimizations of the basic algorithm are presented and the influence of the ordering on the algorithm performance is discussed. Experimental implementation of the algorithm shows promising results.

How to Order Vertices for Distributed LTL Model-Checking Based on Accepting Predecessors

Distributed automata-based LTL model-checking relies on algorithms for finding accepting cycles in a Büchi automaton. The approach to distributed accepting cycle detection as presented in [9] is based on maximal accepting predecessors. The ordering of accepting states (hence the maximality) is one of the main factors affecting the overall complexity of model-checking as an imperfect ordering ca...

Enumerative distributed reachability analysis based on a simple partitioning of the state space has become a well known technique implemented in numerous model checking tools. The timed automata model checker UPPAAL is no exception to this rule, and for over 5 years a distributed version of UPPAAL has been used to analyse large timed automata models. In this talk we address two fundamental issu...

From Distributed Memory Cycle Detection to Parallel LTL Model Checking

In [2] we proposed a parallel graph algorithm for detecting cycles in very large directed graphs distributed over a network of workstations. The algorithm employs back-level edges as computed by the breadth first search. In this paper we describe how to turn the algorithm into an explicit state distributed memory LTL model checker by extending it with detection of accepting cycles, counterexamp...

Parallel Breadth-First Search LTL Model-Checking

We propose a practical parallel on-the-fly algorithm for enumerative LTL model-checking. The algorithm is designed for a cluster of workstations communicating via MPI. The detection of cycles (faulty runs) effectively employs the so called back-level edges. In particular, a parallel level-synchronized breadth-first search of the graph is performed to discover back-level edges. For each level th...
