Regular model checking
is the name of a family of techniques for analyzing infinite-state systems in which states are represented by words, sets of states by finite automata, and transitions by finite-state transducers. The central problem is to compute the transitive closure of a transducer. A main obstacle is that the set of reachable states is in general not regular. Recently, regular model checking has been extended to systems with tree-like architectures. In this paper, we provide a procedure, based on a new implementable acceleration technique, for computing the transitive closure of a tree transducer. The procedure consists of incrementally adding new transitions while merging states which are related according to a pre-defined equivalence relation. The equivalence is induced by a
downward
and an
upward
simulation relation which can be efficiently computed. Our technique can also be used to compute the set of reachable states without computing the transitive closure. We have implemented and applied our technique to several protocols.
