PT Unknown AU Ciancamerla, E Minichino, M Serro, S Tronci, E TI Automatic Timeliness Verification of a Public Mobile Network SE 22nd International Conference on Computer Safety, Reliability, and Security (SAFECOMP) PY 2003 BP 35 EP 48 VL 2788 DI 10.1007/978-3-540-39878-3_4 AB 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.
