Abstract

We formally verify hybrid safety properties of cooperation protocols in a fully parametric version of the European Train Control System (ETCS). We present a formal model using hybrid programs and verify correctness using our logic-based decomposition procedure. This procedure supports free parameters and parameter discovery, which is required to determine correct design choices for free parameters of ETCS.

This research was partly supported by the German Research Council (DFG) of the Transregional Collaborative Research Center (SFB/TR 14 AVACS).
