Quantitative Model Checking

Welcome to the cutting-edge course on Quantitative Model Checking for Markov Chains! As technology permeates every aspect of modern life—Embedded Systems, Cyber-Physical Systems, Communication Protocols, and Transportation Systems—the need for dependable software is at an all-time high. One tiny flaw can lead to catastrophic failures and enormous costs. That's where you come in. The course kicks off with creating a State Transition System, the basic model that captures the intricate dynamics of real-world systems. Soon you'll step into the world of Discrete-time and Continuous-time Markov Chains—powerful mathematical formalisms that are versatile enough to model complex systems yet elegant in their design. These aren't just theories; they are tools actively used across various domains for performance and dependability evaluation. But we won't stop at modelling. The heart of this course is 'Model Checking,' a formal verification method that scrutinizes the functionality of your system model. Learn how to express dependability properties, track the evolution of Markov chains over time, and verify whether states meet particular conditions—all using advanced computational algorithms. By the end of this course, you'll be equipped with the skills to: - Specify dependability properties for a range of transition systems. - Understand the temporal evolution of Markov chains. - Analyze and compute the satisfaction set for multiple properties.
