Abstract

We present jpf-logic, an extension of the model checker Java PathFinder (JPF). Our extension jpf-logic provides a framework to check properties expressed in temporal logics such as linear temporal logic (LTL) and computation tree logic (CTL). To support a logic in our framework, we (1) implement a parser for the logic, (2) develop a hierarchy of classes that represent the abstract syntax of the logic and implement a transformation from parse trees of formulas to the corresponding abstract syntax trees, and (3) implement a model checking algorithm that takes as input an abstract syntax tree of a formula and a partial transition system. The latter represents a model of the Java application. All three components have been implemented for CTL. The first two have been implemented for LTL.
