The problem of model-checking time-bounded until properties can be reduced to the problem of computing transient state probabilities for CTMCs and a variant of lumping equivalence (bisimulation) preserves the validity of all formulas in the logic.

It turns out that the bottleneck lies in the growth of the regular expression relative to the number of states (nΘ(log n), so the approach is to arrive at an effective method that avoids this blow up in most practical cases.

A symbolic approximate method for solving the integrals using MTDDs (multi-terminal decision diagrams), a generalisation of MTBDDs, suitable for numerical integration using quadrature formulas based on equally-spaced abscissas, like trapezoidal, Simpson and Romberg integration schemes.

The main result of this paper is that model checking probabilistic timing properties can be reduced to the problem of computing transient state probabilities for CTMCs, and a variant of ordinary lumping equivalence, a well-known notion for aggregating CT MCs, preserves the validity of all CSL-formulas.

This report presents the language together with its operational semantics, that defines Markovian labelled transition systems as a combination of classical action-oriented transition systems andMarkovian processes, especially continuous time Markov chains, and presents equational laws for the central notion of equivalence.

- 22 June 1997
This paper gives an algorithm to decide weak (and branching) bisimulation with a time complexity cubic in the number of states of the fully probabilistic system, and illustrates that due to these properties, weak bisimulations provides all the crucial ingredients for mechanised compositional veri�cation of Probabilistic transition systems.

A framework to prove almost sure termination for probabilistic programs with real valued variables, based on ranking supermartingales, which is proven sound and complete for a meaningful class of programs involving randomization and bounded nondeterminism.
