Teaching concurrency and nondeterminism with spin

Mordechai Ben‐Ari · 2007

The tutorial will familiarize the participants with the use of the Spin model checker in teaching concepts such as concurrency, verification and nondeterminism. They will also learn to use pedagogical software tools that I built based upon Spin: the jSpin environment for developing and verifying concurrent programs; SpinSpider, a tool for generating graphical representations of state diagrams of concurrent programs; VN, a tool for "experiencing" the nondeterminism of finite automata.
