Directed search for the verification of communication protocols
There is a need for formal methods to verify correctness of software <br>and hardware systems. Automated verification techniques basically <br>explore the state space of a system in order to establish whether or <br>not it behaves correctly. The main drawback of such methods is the state explosion …
