Abstract

In this paper we present a work in progress on the formal verification of a process supervisor using the McErlang model checker. The process supervisor is an alternative implementation of the standard supervisor behaviour of Erlang/OTP. This implementation, currently employed at the company LambdaStream, was checked against several safety and liveness properties.
