Methods to Model-Check Parallel Systems Software
We report on an effort to develop methodologies for formal verification of parts of the Multi-Purpose Daemon (MPD) parallel process management system. MPD is a distributed collection of communicating processes.

VIP: A Visual Editor and Compiler for v-Promela [PDF]
We describe the Visual Interface to PROMELA (VIP) tool that we have recently implemented. VIP supports the visual editing and maintenance of v-Promela models. v-Promela is a visual, object-oriented extension to PROMELA, the input language to the SPIN model checker. We introduce the v-Promela notation as supported by the VIP editor, discuss PROMELA code

Brownotate, a Comprehensive Solution to Generate Protein Sequence Databases for Any Species
ABSTRACT Proteomics is strengthening research in biology and the diversification of the model organisms studied is very promising for fully understanding the complexity of biological principles. However, the lack of protein sequence databases for many species is a major bottleneck.

A computational group theoretic symmetry reduction package for the SPIN model checker [PDF]
Symmetry reduced model checking is hindered by two problems: how to identify state space symmetry when systems are not fully symmetric, and how to determine equivalence of states during search.

A denotational semantics for PROMELA addressing arbitrary jumps
PROMELA (Process Meta Language) is a high-level specification language designed for modeling interactions in distributed systems. PROMELA is used as the input language for the model checker SPIN (Simple Promela INterpreter). The main characteristics of PROMELA are non-determinism, process communication through synchronous as well as asynchronous ...

Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

Directed Explicit Model Checking with HSF-SPIN [PDF]
We present the explicit state model checker HSF-SPIN which is based on the model checker SPIN and its Promela modeling language. HSF-SPIN incorporates directed search algorithms for checking safety and a large class of LTL-specified liveness properties ...

Environmental contamination with the synthetic estrogen 17α‐ethinyl estradiol (EE2) is widespread in coastal ecosystems, yet behavioural effects in marine fishes remain poorly understood. We exposed southern crested weedfish (Cristiceps australis) to low and high EE2 concentrations for 14 days and assessed boldness and anxiety using a refuge‐use assay.
