Zeus: A distributed timed model-checker based on Kronos

In this work we present Zeus, a Distributed Model-Checker that evolves from the tool Kronos [8] and that currently can handle backwards computation of TCTL-reachability properties [1] over timed-automata [2]. Zeus was developed following a software architecture centric approach. It introduces some i...
