Abstract

Broadcast protocols are systems composed of a finite but arbitrarily large number of processes that communicate by rendezvous (two processes exchange a message) or by broadcast (a process sends a message to all other processes). The paper describes an optimized algorithm for the automatic verification of safety properties in broadcast protocols. The algorithm checks whether a property holds for any number of processes.
