ATLDesigner: ATL Model Checking Using An Attribute Grammar

Abstract

In this paper, we use attribute grammars as a formal approach for model checkers development. Our aim is to design an Alternating-Time Temporal Logic (ATL) model checker from a context-free grammar which generates the language of the ATL formulae. An attribute grammar may be informally defined as a context-free grammar which is extended with a set of attributes and a collection of semantic rules. We provide a formal definition for an attribute grammar used as input for Another Tool for Language Recognition (ANTLR) to generate an ATL model checker. The original implementation of the model-checking algorithm is based on Relational Databases and Web Services. Several database systems and Web Services technologies were used for evaluating the system performance in verification of large ATL models.

A Comparative Analysis of the Criteria for Choosing Sustainable Materials for Façades in Turkey and the European Union

“…Given that sustainability has occupied a prominent position on the agenda in many industries, particularly in recent years, search queries in the construction management literature have been limited to presenting significant and well-focused results from previous studies. The keywords were applied to the databases that have been determined [24,25], with the "AND" and "OR" rules, as shown in Table 2.…”
