QMaude: Quantitative Specification and Verification in Rewriting Logic

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Formal Methods (FM 2023)

Abstract

In formal verification, qualitative and quantitative aspects are both relevant, and high-level formalisms are convenient to naturally specify the systems under study and their properties. In this paper, we present a framework for describing probabilistic models on top of nondeterministic specifications in the highly-expressive language Maude, based on rewriting logic. Quantitative properties can be checked and calculated on them using both probabilistic and statistical methods with external tools like PRISM, Storm, MultiVeSta, and custom implementations as backends. At the same time, the underlying nondeterministic system can be verified using the qualitative model-checking and deductive tools already available in Maude.

Notes

  1. 1.

    When the system is controlled by a strategy, the Kripke structure is refined as explained in [46, 48].

  2. 2.

    The results and the scripts to reproduce them are available at maude.ucm.es/qmaude.

  3. 3.

    PVesta is not included in the comparison because its actual convergence criterion differs from the one explained in its paper [2] and used by MultiVeSta and scheck.
