| Research Abstract |
This work aims at developing tools which analyze concurrent systems automatically like model-checkers and symbolically like theorem-provers, in order to support designs of the systems. Then, we have studied on such analysis-tools from two points of views : (1) automatizing proofs in theorem-provers and (2) introducing symbolic computation to model-checkers. In the former (1), we showed that proofs in CSP-Prover, which is a theorem-prover for a concurrency theory called CSP, can be automatized by implementing a model-checking algorithm to CSP-Prover. In the latter (2), we presented a method for automatically analyzing the whole behaviors from structures of concurrent systems and behaviors of component-processes by symbolic computation, and we implemented the analysis-method in a prototype-tool called CONPASU. For example, CONPASU can automatically generate symbolic-labeled transition graphs, which are useful for understanding the behaviors, from concurrent systems with infinite-states.
