Abstract

The authors use model-checking techniques to automatically verify multiagent systems written in a logic-based agent-oriented programming language. The approach is to translate the language into the input notations of existing model checkers. Furthermore, property-based slicing can reduce a multiagent system's state space, thus improving the efficiency of model checking. The analysis of a typical scenario of an autonomous Mars rover illustrates this approach.
