Title
A dash of fairness for compositional reasoning
Abstract
Proofs of progress properties often require fairness assumptions Directly incorporating global fairness assumptions in a compositional method is difficult, given the local flavor of such reasoning We present a fully automated local reasoning algorithm which handles fairness assumptions through a process of iterative refinement Refinement strengthens local proofs by the addition of auxiliary shared variables which expose internal process state; it is needed as local reasoning is inherently incomplete Experiments demonstrate that the new algorithm shows significant improvement over standard model checking.
