Abstract

Model checking is a popular technique for proving properties of systems. When systems are updated with new features, however, one would like to avoid having to re-run the model checking procedure on properties which were true before the update, in order to check that they are still true afterwards. This paper proposes a technique which, in certain circumstances, enables such additional checks to be avoided.
