Abstract

This paper advocates a general approach to formal verification by constructing property-oriented models. We instantiate the approach using timing properties, and construct a heterogeneous untimed model in which time is abstracted away, so that we can verify timing properties in an untimed framework. The correctness of property-oriented model construction is ensured by the conformance of semantic and syntactic mappings.
