We are happy to announce that the following paper has been accepted for publication at the 9th international symposium on Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis (ATVA'11) that will take place in Taipei, Taiwan, on October 11-14, 2011.

The proposed product is an explicit graph of aggregates (symbolic sets of states) that can be interpreted as a Büchi automata. The criterion used by SLAP to aggregate states from the Kripke structure is based on the analysis of self-loops that occur in the Büchi automaton expressing the property to verify. Our hybrid approach allows on the one hand to use classical emptiness-check algorithms and build the graph on-the-fly, and on the other hand, to have a compact encoding of the state space thanks to the symbolic representation of the aggregates. Our experiments show that this technique often outperforms other existing (hybrid or fully symbolic) approaches. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz
