Abstract

Boost symbolic model checking in LTSmin by revisiting the notion

of guards, exploit it in symbolic reachability strategies, and

apply it to mCRL2 models.

 

This research will boost our symbolic model checking capabilities,

and should allow us to solve interesting puzzles (Sokoban, Othello)

and games (Connect Four, Checkers) and verify synchronous hardware models.
