Produktbeschreibung
The benefits of formal methods have been discussed many timesin the literature. Production costs can be decreased greatly iferrors can be detected in an early phase of design. Accidents,involving major damage and even loss of lives, can be avoided ifsystems are working correctly. Nevertheless, the use of formalmethods is limited in practice since the trade-off betweenproductivity and reliability is still too large. This work aims atimproving the applicability of the formal approach. To be ofpractical relevance in the future formal system development mustprovide support for modelling and analysis. Currently, however,there is a discrepancy between tools that are easy to use due toautomation and languages that nicely support the modelling task. Itis necessary to bridge this gap. This work contributes with asolution for a particular formal language and a particular kind oftool support for verification. The title ``Model Checking AbstractState Machines\" summarises the results.
