We extend the classical labeled transition system models by qualifying transitions as certain and uncertain to make deadlock-freedom conservative, i.e. if the abstraction of a system is deadlock-free, then the system is deadlock-free. An abstraction refinement approach to deadlock detection is proposed, and the correctness of the approach is proved.展开更多

The labelled transition semantics is relatively clean and simple, andcorresponding bisimulation equivalence can be easily formulated based on it. And the congruenceproperties of the bisimulation equivalence can be proved easily. To show the correspondence betweenthe proposed semantics and the well-established ones, the bisimulation is characterized as a versionof barbed equivalence and a version of context bisimulation.展开更多

Most existing techniques for consistency checking either focus on requirement models(e.g., requirements consistency checking), or on the implementations(e.g., code-based testing) only. In this paper we propose an approach to checking behavioral consistency of implementations against requirement models directly to overcome these limitations. Our approach extracts two behavioral models represented by Labelled Transition Systems(LTS) from requirement models and implementations respectively, and checks the behavioral consistency between these two models based on behavioral simulation relation of LTS. The checking results of our approach provide evidence for behavioral inconsistency as well as inconsistent localization. A research prototype called BCCH and a case study are presented to give initial validation of this approach.展开更多
