About a decade after the initial proposal to use model checkers for the generation of test
cases we take a look at the results in this field of research. Model checkers are formal …

We explain the main ingredients of the Abstract State Machines (ASM) method for high-level
system design and analysis and survey some of its application highlights in industrial …

Abstract Model-based test case generation (MB-TCG) and prioritization (MB-TCP) utilize
models that represent the system under test (SUT) for test generation and prioritization in …

In this paper we introduce a new research effort in making abstract state machines (ASMs)
executable. The aim is to specify and implement an execution engine for a language that is …

This paper presents a model‐driven software process suitable to develop a set of integrated
tools around a formal method. This process exploits concepts and technologies of the Model …

In this paper, we present a concrete textual notation, called AsmetaL, and a general-purpose
simulation engine, called AsmetaS, for Abstract State Machine (ASM) specifications. They …

Safety-critical systems require development methods and processes that lead to provably
correct systems in order to prevent catastrophic consequences due to system failure or …

This paper presents AsmetaSMV, a model checker for Abstract State Machines (ASMs). It
has been developed with the aim of enriching the ASMETA (ASM mETAmodeling) toolset–a …

This paper presents the AValLa language, a domain-specific modelling language for
scenario-based validation of ASM models, and its supporting tool, the AsmetaV validator …

This paper presents a technique to model check UML specifications by translating UML
models to the model checker SPIN. Our models consist of active UML classes, whose …
