One of the greatest challenges in software engineering: • hardreal-timedeadlines, • mission and safety-critical, • complex and embedded within another complex system, • interacts with humans in a sophisticated way. Super Computers with Wings "Companies that exploit information technology most effectively will be the most likely to dominate the aerospace landscape in the 21st century" [Aviation Week, 12/98].

  4. Talk Outline • Introduction • Modeling reactive systems • Mode diagrams • From statecharts to mode diagrams • Modular reasoning • Model checking • Wrap-up

  5. Why Building Models? • To understand the problem better, • To communicate with customers, • To finderrors or omissions, • To plan out the design, • To generatecode. Modeling is a technique widely used in all engineering disciplines. In particular, for reactive systems it allows:

  6. Modeling Reactive Systems • Software Engineering Methods (e.g. UML, UML-RT) • mixedvisual/textualnotations, • speedup thedevelopment cycle, • improvecustomer /developercommunication • restricted analysis by simulation and testing, • restrictedconfidencein the modeled system. • Formal Methods (e.g. Model Checkers) • mathematicalmodels of reactive systems, • speedup specification/prototyping, • allowa thoroughanalysisof the modeled system, • highconfidencein the modeled system. • Currently there aretwo main methods • for modelingreactive systems: • Software engineering methods, • Formal methods.

  7. Software Engineering Methods • Successfully applied in • Automotive, aerospace and telecommunications • Logic design • Tools • SDL, ROOM, Statemate, Rhapsody, UML-RT • Cierto VC CoDesign, StateCAD/StateBench • Companies • Telelogic, Verilog, ObjecTime, iLogix, Rational • Cadence, Visual Software Solutions

  8. model yes temporal property error trace Model Checkers Model Checker No longer an academic research only. "... model checking will be the second most important, if not the most important, tool in the verification tool suite.“ [Cadence Web] • Advantage • Fully automated formal verification, • Effective debugging tool • Standard approaches • Enumerative search with reduction heuristics • Symbolic search using BDDs

  9. Model Checkers • Successfully applied in • Hardware design and analysis • Finding bugs in cache coherence protocols, video graphics image chips (>96 processors) • Tools • Spin, Murf, Mocha, LMC, XMC,… • FormalCheck, Cospan, VERDICT, SMV, VIS,… • Companies • Cadence, Lucent, Intel, IBM, Motorola, Siemens

  10. Unfortunately  • There is aconsiderable gapbetween thesoftware engineeringandthe formalmethods. • Scalability is still a challenge for formal analysis tools.

  11. Fortunately  Long Term Research Program • Close the gap between the software engineering and the formal methods, • Scale up the analysis tools by exploiting the software engineering artifacts.

  12. Talk Outline • Introduction • Modeling reactive systems • Mode diagrams • From statecharts to mode diagrams • Modular reasoning • Model checking • Wrap-up

  13. Mode Diagrams • Visual language for hierarchic reactive machines • hierarchic modes, mode sharing, • group transitions, history, • mixed and/or hierarchies. • 2.Observational trace semantics • mode refinement, • modular reasoning. • 3. Model checker • exploits the hierarchy information, • exploits the type information.

  17. Statecharts • Formalism • Introduced: 1987 byDavid Harel, • Related notations:Rsml, Modecharts, Roomcharts, • Key component in OO Methods: UML, ROOM, OMT, etc. • Software • ILogix, ObjecTime, Rational, etc. • Application Area • Automotive industry, avionics, telecommunications, etc. • Semantics • Many attempts (more than 24 semantics), • All operational: no trace semantics, no refinement rules.

  18. From Statecharts to Modes • Regular transitions ->Entry/exit points(control interface) • Group transitions ->Default points(control interface) onH onH ini call onHook offHook call offH ok idle gettingNo connecting rtB rtE ok answ answ offH ringing talking rtB onHook offHook rtB rtB telSw Obstacles in achieving modularity • Regular transitions connect deep nested modes. • Group transitions implicitly connect deep nested modes. • Nested state references break encapsulation. • State reference -> Scoping of variables(data interface)

  24. Symbolic Search R1 R2 Rk A R0 Ok+1 = Rk+1– Rk Rk+1 = Rk | (Ok&T)

  25. Model Checking • Graphical editor and both an enumerativeandasymbolicmodel checker. • Reachability analysis exploits the structure: • Reached state space indexed by control points • Transition relation is indexed by control points • Transition type exploited • Mode definitions are shared among instances.

  26. Example: Generic Hierarchic System localc : (0..2) localz : (0..n) c z skp inc inc w0 w1 z c=1 & z<n -> c:=0; z:=z+1; skp id v3 w1 (c=1 & w1=n) | c=2 -> skip; skp inc inc skp v2 v3 skp inc localw1 : (0..n) localv3 : (0..n)

  27. The Reached Set z c skp R(c,z) skp inc w0 w1 z id inc R(c,z,w1,v3,hw1) R(c,z,w1,v3,hw1,hz) v3 w1 R(c,z,w1) skp inc inc skp v2 v3 skp inc R(c,z,w1,v3) R(c,z,w1,v3) • The reached set is indexed by control points: • Each reached control point has an associated • multi valued binary decision diagram (mdd), • The set of variables of an mdd depends on • the scope of the control point.

  28. The Transition Relation z gcs hz = 2 skp skp inc w0 w1 z id inc c,v3.( R(c,z,w1,v3) & inc(c,c’,v3,v3’) )[c’,v3’:=c,v3] h’z = 1 w1.( R(c,z,w1) & skp(c,w1)) v3 w1 inc skp skp v2 v3 skp inc inc c=1 & v3<n & c’=0 & v3’=v3+1 (c=1 & w1=n) | c=2 • The transition relation is indexed by control • points (> conjunctively partitioned mdds): • Each transition has an associated mdd, • The set of variables of an mdd depends on • the scope of the transition, • Type information: no identity extension necessary, • Variablescoping enables early quantification.

  29. Results • As expected,themodel checker for modes is superiorto currentmodel checkerswhen: • sequential behavior ishierarchical, • modes havelocal variables.

  39. Motivation • Scalable analysis demands modular reasoning: • modeling language has to support syntactically and semantically modular constructs, • model checking has to exploitmodular design. • Close the gap between: • software design languages (UML, Statecharts, Rsml), • model checking languages (Spin, SMV, Mocha).

  41. Modular Reasoning • Terminology • Compositional and assume/guarantee reasoning based on observable behaviors. • Application area • Only recently is being automated by model checkers, • Until now restricted to architecture hierarchies. • Compositional Reasoning • Central to many formalisms: CCS, I/O Automata,TLA, etc. • Circular Assume/Guarantee Reasoning • Valid only when the interaction of a module with its environment is non-blocking.
