Abstract

Spin and NuSMV are the two most widely-used model checkers. Because they have different characters, it makes sense to have a translator from Spin models to NuSMV models. In this paper we describe a tool named S2N which builds a bridge from Spin to NuSMV. With S2N users could choose the appropriate ways as needed to build and check their models.This work can also be thought as a study on the model transformation.
