Title :
Checking modification tolerance
Author_Institution :
Erlangen-Nurnberg Univ., Germany
Abstract :
We elaborate a relational framework which allows the modeling and analysis of unintended and fault-tolerant system behavior. The framework is based on the notions of concurrent finite state machines and on tolerance and error relations over the state set of these machines. The focus is on permanent errors which modify the transition structure of these machines
