- SAT algorithms
- predicate logic
- Petri nets, temporal logic
- mobile process calculations.
Skills
- be able to explain precisely and using the terminology and notation of the subject important important theories for description and analysis of software systems;
- be able to use specification and verification methods based on formal models;
- be able to make use of the necessary writing skills in this context
Competences
- be able to use formal models and associated verification tools for description, analysis and verification of software systems
