Abstract

“ARA” is a verification tool which applies some recent improved speed verification techniques. ARA accepts as input systems described in Basic Lotos. With ARA, a system can be verified by showing that it is behaviourally equivalent with its specification. For comparing behaviours, ARA uses a novel CSP-like but catastrophe-free behavioural equivalence notion called “CFFD-equivalence”. ARA can also reduce the behaviour of the system into a small “normal” form, and show the result graphically. ARA applies two techniques to cope with the state explosion problem: compositional LTS construction and the stubborn set method. The paper contains a detailed example of the validation of a communication protocol using ARA. The paper concentrates on the intuition behind the various novel ideas of ARA; formal details are mostly omitted.
