On using SMT-solvers for modeling and verifying dynamic network emulators: (work in progress)
Résumé
In this paper, a novel model-based approach to verify dynamic networks is proposed. The network topology and dynamic link parameters are described as a many sorted first order logic formula, that is verified by an SMT-solver (z3 in our case) with respect to a set of properties. The formula is also used for run-time network verification when a given static network instance is implemented. Preliminary experiments showcase the expressiveness and current limitations of the proposed approach.
