Abstract

Mage is a new experimental model checker based on game semantics. It adapts several techniques including lazy (on-the-fly) modelling, symbolic modelling, C.E.G.A.R. and approximated counterexample certification to game models. It demonstrates the potential for truly compositional verification of real software.
