CASSIS : Combining ApproacheS for the Security of Infinite state Systems#
The CASSIS project ended in Dec. 2015. The follow-up project is PESTO
.

Description#
The aim of the project is the design and the development of tools for checking the safety of systems with an infinite number of states. Our analysis of systems is based on a symbolic representation of the sets of states as formal languages or logical formulas. Safety is obtained by automated proofs, symbolic exploration of models, or tests generation. An originality of the project lies in its focus on the infinite systems, parameterized or of large size, where each technique taken separately shows its limits. As examples of such systems we can mention protocols operating on topologies of arbitrary size (ring networks), systems handling datastructures with unspecified size (sets), or whose control is infinite (automata communicating by unlimited buffers).The applications are embedded softwares on smart cards, for example, security protocols and distributed systems.
Research Domains#
Our goal is designing methods and building tools for checking critical software. To this end, we combine techniques from- Automated deduction
- Synthesis and constraint solving
- Analysis of reachability in infinite systems
Application Domains#
The current application domains of the team are:- Verification of security protocols
- Generation of tests sequences from a formal model
- Verification and debugging of programs
