Abstract:

We give an example of protocol verification in Lotos, using automata-based verification tools available inside the Lotosphere Integrated Tool Environment (Lite). The current state of tools imposes a dedicated, behaviour oriented, specification style. The example we consider is a Sliding Window protocol. We present the specification of the various components of the protocol, and analyse its behaviour for various quality of the underlying communication media: we prove that the protocol is able to recover from the loss, the duplication, and the shuffling of messages. We give time and space measurements of the verification activities, highlighting the methods for state explosion control.
