STAMINA: Stochastic Approximate Model-Checker for Infinite-State Analysis

Neupane, Thakur 01 August 2019 (has links)
Reliable operation of every day use computing system, from simple coffee machines to complex flight controller system in an aircraft, is necessary to save time, money, and in some cases lives. System testing can check for the presence of unwanted execution but cannot guarantee the absence of such. Probabilistic model checking techniques have demonstrated significant potential in verifying performance and reliability of various systems whose execution are defined with likelihood. However, its inability to scale limits its applicability in practice. This thesis presents a new model checker, STAMINA, with efficient and scalable model truncation for probabilistic verification. STAMINA uses a novel model reduction technique generating a finite state representations of large systems that are amenable to existing probabilistic model checking techniques. The proposed method is evaluated on several benchmark examples. Comparisons with another state-of-art tool demonstrates both accuracy and efficiency of the presented method.
