ltspcompare

The tool ltspcompare compares two transition systems that both must have either the extension .aut, .lts or .fsm. The tool is intended to compare probabilistic transition systems. As it stands there is only one equivalence implemented, which is strong probabilistic bisimulation for non-deterministic processes a la Larsen and Skou. There are two implementations, namely the classical but rather slow algorithm by Baier, Engelen and Majster-Cederbaum, and the much faster one by Groote, Rivera-Verduzco and de Vink.

The intention is to add more equivalences and preorders when efficient algorithms for them become available.

Usage

ltspcompare   [OPTION]... [INFILE1] INFILE2

Description

Determine whether the labelled transition systems in INFILE1 and INFILE2 are related by some probabilistic equivalence or preorder. If INFILE1 is not supplied, stdin is used.

The input formats are determined by the contents of INFILE1 and INFILE2. Options –in1 and –in2 can be used to force the input format of INFILE1 and INFILE2, respectively. The supported formats are:: ‘aut’ for the Aldebaran format (CADP), ‘dot’ for the GraphViz format (no longer supported as input format), ‘fsm’ for the Finite State Machine format, or ‘lts’ for the mCRL2 LTS format
