Abduction of trap invariants in parameterized systems

چکیده
In a previous paper we have presented CEGAR approach for the verification of parameterized systems with an arbitrary number processes organized in array or ring. The technique is based on iterative computation invariants, i.e., infinite families invariants infinitely many instances system. Safety properties are proved by checking that every global configuration system satisfying all also satisfies property; shown this check can be reduced to satisfiability problem Monadic Second Order words, which decidable. A strong limitation only fixed variables finite range. particular, they cannot use range [0,N-1], where N processes, appear standard distributed algorithms. paper, extend our case. While conducting whether safety property inductive assuming computed set becomes undecidable, show how reduce it first-order formula. We report experiments showing automatic theorem provers still perform collection non-trivial examples. Additionally, give small sets readable these checks.

The Parameterized Complexity of Abduction
Abduction belongs to the most fundamental reasoning methods. It is a method for reverse inference, this means one is interested in explaining observed behavior by finding appropriate causes. We study logic-based abduction, where knowledge is represented by propositional formulas. The computational complexity of this problem is highly intractable in many interesting settings. In this work we the...
متن کاملOn the Existence of Network Invariants for Verifying Parameterized Systems
Over the last decade, nite-state veriication methods have been developed to an impressive tool for analysis of complex programs, such as protocols and hardware circuits. Partial-order reduction and BDD-based symbolic model checking have been instrumental in this development. Currently, much eeort is devoted to advancing further the power of automated veriication to cover also innnite-state syst...
متن کاملInvariants of Parameterized Binary Tree Networks as Greatest Fixpoints
This paper describes a method to verify safety properties of parameterized binary tree networks of processes. The method is based on the construction of a network invariant, deened as a xpoint. Since least xpoints did not give satisfactory results, backward computation of greatest xpoints is explored, and a technique of computation based on heuristics is proposed. This technique has been implem...
متن کاملParameterized Gromov-Witten invariants and topology of symplectomorphism groups
In this note we introduce parameterized Gromov-Witten invariants for symplectic fiber bundles and study the topology of the symplectomorphism group. We also give sample applications showing the non-triviality of certain homotopy groups of some symplectomorphism groups.
متن کاملParameterized Model Checking by Network Invariants: the Asynchronous Case
Notwithstanding the significant progress of model checking techniques, the interesting problem of checking a specification φ against a parameterized family F of finite-state models {Mn} is still a challenge. Although for certain kind of systems parameterized model checking is of no practical interest, some systems can be scaled up to unboudedly many communicating processes. It is often the case...
