	Title	Model-Checking Based on Fluid Petri Nets for the Temperature Control System of the ICARO Co-generative Plant			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2002	Publication	21st International Conference on Computer Safety, Reliability and Security (SAFECOMP)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	273-283
	Keywords
	Abstract	The modeling and analysis of hybrid systems is a recent and challenging research area which is actually dominated by two main lines: a functional analysis based on the description of the system in terms of discrete state (hybrid) automata (whose goal is to ascertain for conformity and reachability properties), and a stochastic analysis (whose aim is to provide performance and dependability measures). This paper investigates a unifying view between formal methods and stochastic methods by proposing an analysis methodology of hybrid systems based on Fluid Petri Nets (FPN). It is shown that the same FPN model can be fed to a functional analyser for model checking as well as to a stochastic analyser for performance evaluation. We illustrate our approach and show its usefulness by applying it to a Ã¢â‚¬Å“real worldÃ¢â‚¬Â hybrid system: the temperature control system of a co-generative plant.

	Title	Automatic Timeliness Verification of a Public Mobile Network			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2003	Publication	22nd International Conference on Computer Safety, Reliability, and Security (SAFECOMP)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	35-48
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper deals with the automatic verification of the timeliness of Public Mobile Network (PMN), consisting of Mobile Nodes (MNs) and Base Stations (BSs). We use the Mur$\varphi$ Model Checker to verify that the waiting access time of each MN, under different PMN configurations and loads, and different inter arrival times of MNs in a BS cell, is always below a preassigned threshold. Our experimental results show that Model Checking can be successfully used to generate worst case scenarios and nicely complements probabilistic methods and simulation which are typically used for performance evaluation.

	Title	Automatic Analysis of a Safety Critical Tele Control System			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2005	Publication	24th International Conference on: Computer Safety, Reliability, and Security (SAFECOMP)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	94-107
	Keywords
	Abstract	We show how the Mur$\varphi$ model checker can be used to automatically carry out safety analysis of a quite complex hybrid system tele-controlling vehicles traffic inside a safety critical transport infrastructure such as a long bridge or a tunnel. We present the Mur$\varphi$ model we developed towards this end as well as the experimental results we obtained by running the Mur$\varphi$ verifier on our model. Our experimental results show that the approach presented here can be used to verify safety of critical dimensioning parameters (e.g. bandwidth) of the telecommunication network embedded in a safety critical system.

	Title	Formally Modeling a Metal Processing Plant and its Closed Loop Specifications			Type	Conference Article
	Year	1999	Publication	4th IEEE International Symposium on High-Assurance Systems Engineering (HASE)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	151
	Keywords
	Abstract	We present a case study on automatic synthesis of control software from formal specifications for an industrial automation control system. Our aim is to compare the effectiveness (i.e. design effort and controller quality) of automatic controller synthesis from closed loop formal specifications with that of manual controller design followed by automatic verification. The system to be controlled (plant) models a metal processing facility near Karlsruhe. We succeeded in automatically generating C code implementing a (correct by construction) embedded controller for such a plant from closed loop formal specifications. Our experimental results show that for industrial automation control systems automatic synthesis is a viable and profitable (especially as far as design effort is concerned) alternative to manual design followed by automatic verification.

	Title	Exploiting Transition Locality in the Disk Based Mur$\varphi$ Verifier			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2002	Publication	4th International Conference on Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design (FMCAD)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	202-219
	Keywords
	Abstract	The main obstruction to automatic verification of Finite State Systems is the huge amount of memory required to complete the verification task (state explosion). This motivates research on distributed as well as disk based verification algorithms. In this paper we present a disk based Breadth First Explicit State Space Exploration algorithm as well as an implementation of it within the Mur$\varphi$ verifier. Our algorithm exploits transition locality (i.e. the statistical fact that most transitions lead to unvisited states or to recently visited states) to decrease disk read accesses thus reducing the time overhead due to disk usage. A disk based verification algorithm for Mur$\varphi$ has been already proposed in the literature. To measure the time speed up due to locality exploitation we compared our algorithm with such previously proposed algorithm. Our experimental results show that our disk based verification algorithm is typically more than 10 times faster than such previously proposed disk based verification algorithm. To measure the time overhead due to disk usage we compared our algorithm with RAM based verification using the (standard) Mur$\varphi$ verifier with enough memory to complete the verification task. Our experimental results show that even when using 1/10 of the RAM needed to complete verification, our disk based algorithm is only between 1.4 and 5.3 times (3 times on average) slower than (RAM) Mur$\varphi$ with enough RAM memory to complete the verification task at hand. Using our disk based Mur$\varphi$ we were able to complete verification of a protocol with about $10^9$ reachable states. This would require more than 5 gigabytes of RAM using RAM based Mur$\varphi$.

	Title	A Probabilistic Approach to Automatic Verification of Concurrent Systems			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2001	Publication	8th Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	317-324
	Keywords
	Abstract	The main barrier to automatic verification of concurrent systems is the huge amount of memory required to complete the verification task (state explosion). In this paper we present a probabilistic algorithm for automatic verification via model checking. Our algorithm trades space with time. In particular, when memory is full because of state explosion our algorithm does not give up verification. Instead it just proceeds at a lower speed and its results will only hold with some arbitrarily small error probability. Our preliminary experimental results show that by using our probabilistic algorithm we can typically save more than 30% of RAM with an average time penalty of about 100% w.r.t. a deterministic state space exploration with enough memory to complete the verification task. This is better than giving up the verification task because of lack of memory.
