VALISYN, an automated system for the validation and synthesis of error-free protocols has been implemented in C language. It assists designers in the detection and prevention of various kinds of potential design errors, such as state deadlocks, non-executable interactions, unspecified receptions and state ambiguities.
The technique employed is a stepwise application of a set of production rules which guarantee complete reception capability. These rules are implemented in a tracking algorithm, which prevents the formation of non-executable interactions and unspecified receptions, and which monitors the existence of state deadlocks and state ambiguities.
The implementation of VALISYN is discussed and a number of protocol validation and synthesis examples are presented to illustrate its use and features. / Science, Faculty of / Computer Science, Department of / Graduate
