We show that Cubicle, an SMT-based infinite-state model checker, can be applied as a verification engine for GLog, a logic-based language based on relational updates rules that has been applied to specify topology-sensitive distributed protocols with asynchronous communication. In this setting, the absence of protocol anomalies can be reduced to a coverability problem in which the initial set of configurations is not fixed a priori (Existential Coverability Problem). Existential Coverability in GLog can naturally be expressed into Parameterized Verification judgements in Cubicle. The encoding is based on a translation of relational update rules into transition rules that modify cells of unbounded arrays. To show the effectiveness of the approach, we discuss several verification problems for distributed protocols and distributed objects, a challenging task for traditional verification tools. The experimental results show the flexibility and robustness of Cubicle for the considered class of protocol examples.

A generalized semi-Markov process with speeds describes the fluctuation, in time, of the state of a certain general system involving, at any given time, one or more living components, whose residual lifetimes are being reduced at state-dependent speeds. Conditions are given for the stationary state distribution, when it exists, to depend only on the means of some of the lifetime distributions, not their exact shapes. This generalizes results of König and Jansen, particularly to the infinite-state case.
