Theta: Abstraction Based Techniques for Verifying Concurrency (Competition Contribution)
摘要
Theta is a model checking framework, with a strong emphasis on effectively handling concurrency in software using abstraction refinement algorithms. In SV-COMP 2024, we use 1) an abstraction-aware partial order reduction; 2) a dynamic statement reduction technique; and 3) enhanced support for call stacks to handle recursive programs. We integrate these techniques in an improved architecture with inherent support for portfolio-based verification using dynamic algorithm selection, with a diverse selection of supported SMT solvers as well. In this paper we detail the advances of Theta regarding concurrent and recursive software support.
