Report from Aalborg visit and ETAPS conference, spring 2002

by Alexandre David

Supported by a travel grant from ARTES, I spent four weeks in Aalborg University to work on UPPAAL. We implemented new data structures, we changed the pipeline of UPPAAL, and we prepared the future hierarchical engine. This work gave a performance boost to UPPAAL: 5x faster and 5x less memory compared to the official release.

During my visit I was asked to give a seminar on "Verification of UML Statecharts with Real-time Extensions" that was going to be presented at the FASE conference, part of the joint ETAPS 2002 conference.

Then I spent a week in Grenoble for the ETAPS conference where I presented my paper. From the other presentations and the invited speakers there was a clear trend towards abstraction in model-checking.
