Abstract

Reasoning about agents and modalities such as knowledge and belief leads to models where different relations over states co-exist, or equivalently, where information (labels, actions) is associated to state transitions. This paper discusses how to augment classical CTL symbolic model-checking to support logics with actions such as A-CTL (action-CTL), and how this can be implemented using BDDs in tools such as the SMV/NuSMV package. Considering general action-state structures, we first propose a natural extension of CTL to actions, called Action-Restricted CTL (ARCTL) and adapt classical results from CTL to ex- press model checking based on three functions eax, eau and eag. On these grounds, we present two different implementations of symbolic model checking with actions. The first approach encodes action-state models and logics into pure state-based models and logics, that can be checked with existing model-checkers. The second approach consists in a native implementation of the three extended operators. We report on our prototype implementation of both approaches based on NuSMV and give an overview of how this is used to model-check the temporal epistemic logic CTLK.
