Abstract
We propose a framework for the verification of specification in multiagent systems by symbolic model checking. The language CTLKD (an extension of CTL) allows for the representation of the temporal evolution of epistemic states of the agents, as well as their correct and incorrect functioning behaviour. We ground our analysis on the semantics of deontic interpreted systems. The verification approach is based on an adaption of the technique of bounded model checking, a mainstream approach in verification of reactive systems. We test our results on a typical communication scenario: the bit transmission problem with faults
