Abstract

Munta is a mechanically verified model checker for timed automata, a popular formalism for modeling real-time systems. Our goal is two-fold: first, we want to provide a reference implementation that is fast enough to test other model checkers against it on reasonably sized benchmarks; second, the tool should be practical enough so that it can easily be used for experimentation. Munta can be compiled to Standard ML or OCaml and additionally features a web-based GUI. Its modeling language has a simple semantics but provides the most commonly used timed automata modeling features.
