An Approach to Model Checking of Multi-agent Data Analysis

Abstract

The paper presents an approach to verification of a multi-agent data analysis algorithm. We base correct simulation of the multi-agent system by a finite integer model. For verification we use model checking tool SPIN. Protocols of agents are written in Promela language and properties of the multi-agent data analysis system are expressed in logic LTL. We run several experiments with SPIN and the model.Comment: In Proceedings MOD* 2014, arXiv:1411.345
