Abstract

The STeP (Stanford Temporal Prover) system supports the computer-aided verification of reactive and real-time systems. It combines deductive methods with algorithmic techniques to allow the verification of a broad class of systems, including infinite-state systems and parameterized N-process programs. STeP provides the visual language of verification diagrams that allow the user to construct proofs hierarchically, starting from a high-level proof sketch. The availability of automatically generated bottom-up and top-down invariants and an integrated suite of decision procedures allow most verification conditions to be checked without user intervention.
