Abstract:
Abstract. We report on our experience in using the Isabelle/HOL theorem prover to mechanize proofs of observation equivalence for systems with innitely many states, and for parameterized systems. We follow the direct approach: An innite relation containing the pair of systems to be shown equivalent is dened, and then proved to be a weak bisimulation. The weak bisimilarity proof is split into many cases, corresponding to the derivatives of the pairs in the relation. Isabelle/HOL automatically proves simple cases, and guarantees that no case is forgotten. The strengths and weaknesses of the approach are discussed. 1
