Abstract

Hyperproperties have been widely used to express system properties like noninterference, observational determinism, conformance, robustness, etc. However, the model checking problem for hyperproperties is challenging due to its inherent complexity of verifying properties across sets of traces and suffers from scalability issues. Previously, statistical approaches have proven effective in tackling the scalability of model checking for temporal logic. In this work, we have attempted to combine these two concepts to propose a tractable solution to model checking of hyperproperties expressed as HyperLTL on models involving nondeterminism. We have implemented our approach in PLASMA and experimented with a range of case studies to showcase its effectiveness.

This project was partially funded by the United States NSF SaTC Awards 2245114 and 2100989, NSF Award CCF-2133160, FWF-project ZK-35, FNRS PDR - T013721, and by the Vienna Science and Technology Fund (WWTF) [10.47379/ICT19018].
