Abstract
This paper considers a generic approach to enhance traditional runtime verification techniques towards first-order theories in order to reason about data. This allows especially for the verification of multi-threaded, object-oriented systems. It presents a general framework lifting the monitor synthesis for propositional temporal logics to a temporal logic over structures within some first-order theory. To evaluate such temporal properties, SMT solving and classical monitoring of propositional temporal properties is combined. The monitoring procedure was implemented for linear-time temporal logic (LTL) based on the Z3 SMT solver and evaluated regarding runtime performance.
