De la vérification Symbolique aux langages dédiés à un domaine

This talk will present our experience in building data structures, algorithms, languages and tools to enable symbolic model-checking of specifications expressed in a variety of formalisms. The data structures use symbolic representations of large sets of states and of transition relations to face the challenge of state space explosion, inherent to model-checking. The algorithms exploit such symbolic representations to verify complex behavioral properties of a system, expressed using temporal logic.We leverage model-driven engineering and model transformations to propose a simple yet expressive intermediate language to express the semantics of concurrent systems.The tools freely available at offer both a user friendly front-end and an efficient back-end solver. They support analysis of diverse formalisms designed for modeling of concurrent and real-time systems
