Abstract: It is shown how fault-tolerant distributed algorithms can be formally verified using the Petri net based verification framework DAWN. A complete example study, the verification of a distributed self-diagnosis algorithm, is presented to demonstrate the benefits of the proposed approach.
Keywords: DAWN, High-level Petri nets, distributed algorithms, fault-tolerance verification, formal verification.
