Abstract

We study the use of some verification techniques for reasoning about temporal properties of CommUnity designs.We concentrate on the verification of temporal properties in the context of branching-time temporal logic using the SMV tool. We also discuss ways of modularising the temporal reasoning, by exploiting the various kinds of morphisms between designs available in CommUnity. Moreover, we combine SMV verification with some abstract interpretation mechanisms to overcome a limitation, with respect to the use of structure for simplification of verification, of CommUnity's refinement morphisms, the lack of support for data refinement.
