Tools for TLA


Project description

This project dealt with the investigation of tool-support for the application of TLA (Temporal Logic of Actions, L. Lamport 1989) and the corresponding specification language TLA+. In the CD-part of the project (construction and design) more conventional tools - specification editor / browser, specification interpreter, animation of specifications - have been under study. The AV-part (analysis and verification) investigates the different possibilities for the support of verification tasks - logical proofs by means of automated theorem provers, automated reachability analysis tools, and model checkers for finite state systems.
