Abstract

State space explosion causes most relevant behavioral questions for component-based systems to be PSPACE-hard. Here, we exploit the structure of component-based systems to obtain a first approximation of the reachable global state space. In order to improve this approximation we introduce a new technique we call cross-checking. The resulting approximation can be used to study global properties of component-based systems, which we demonstrate here for local deadlock-freedom.
