Model-Checking an Ecosystem Model for Decision-Aid

International audience—This work stems on the idea that timed automata models and model-checking techniques may bring much in a decision-aid context when dealing with large and interacting qualitative models. In this paper, we focus on two key issues when facing the interpretation and explanation of behavior in real-world systems: the model building and its exploration using logic patterns. We illustrate this approach in the ecological domain with the modeling and exploration of a fisheries ecosystem
