Coverage Metrics for Model Checking
John Penix, Willem I. Visser, Peter Norvig · NASA STI Repository (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) · 2001
When using model checking to verify programs in practice, it is not usually possible to achieve complete coverage of the system. In this position paper we describe ongoing research within the Automated Software Engineering group at NASA Ames on the use of test coverage metrics to measure partial coverage and provide heuristic guidance for program model checking. We are specifically interested in applying and developing coverage metrics for concurrent programs that might be used to support certification of next generation avionics software.
