Abstract

The MODEST Tool Environment (MOTOR) is a tool to facilitate the transformation, analysis and validation of MODEST models. MODEST is a modelling language to describe stochastic real-time systems. MOTOR implements the formal semantics of MODEST and is designed to transform and abstract MODEST specifications such that analysis can be carried out by third-party tools. For the time being, a fragment of MODEST can be model-checked using Cadp. The main analytical workhorse behind motor is discrete-event simulation, which is provided by the MÖBIUS performance evaluation environment. We are experimenting with prototypical connections to the real-time model checker UPPAAL.
