Abstract

In this paper, we present a method and a tool to build symbolic labelled transition systems from B specifications. The tool, called GeneSyst, can take into account refinement levels and can visualize the decomposition of abstract states in concrete hierarchical states. The resulting symbolic transition system represents all the behaviors of the initial B event system. So, it can be used to reason about them. We illustrate the use of GeneSyst to check security properties on a model of electronic purse.
