TL;DR: A generalized operational semantics of the modelling language promela is presented that provides the theoretical basis to introduce this promising method in the model checker SPIN.

TL;DR: A method to automatically extract PROMELA models from the C source code and a tool that can verify realistic applications that has been used as a novel testing method to ensure the correctness of the APEX environment.

TL;DR: In this article, an abstract methodology based on over-and under-approximation of tccp models is presented to model the suspension behavior of a TCCP program, which mitigates the state explosion problem common to traditional model-checking algorithms.

TL;DR: This paper gives a method for using the tool SPIN to verify distributed software systems that use the API Socket and the network protocol stack TCPIP for communications.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a tool for the integration of several abstraction approaches (for models and formulas) into the well known model checker Spin, in particular, αSpin integrates two dual approaches, the classic abstraction method, based on under-approximating properties, and an alternative approach, proposed by the authors, where abstraction provides an over-matching of the formulas.
