| Description: |
Despite its advantages, model-based diagnosis is not yet often used in
practice. A possible reason is the modeling effort, in particular if
it is unclear whether the chosen modeling formalism offers the right
means for model-based diagnosis. This case study presents an approach
to model-based diagnosis for models written in LNT, a modern formal
modeling language, designed with formal verification in mind.
The basic idea is to make an LNT model usable for diagnosis is to encapsulate components of the system inside wrapper components (written in LNT), a parameter of which controls whether a component behaves correctly or not, i.e., whether it behaves according to the original LNT model, or whether a simulator can use all domain values for the component's parameters. The behaviour of the whole system is obtained by the parallel composition of all wrapper components, following the same architecture as the original LNT model. Fault diagnosis requires to check whether a faulty trace is included in a model with some faulty components. This check can be expressed as an equivalence checking (using BISIMULATOR) or model checking (using EVALUATOR, expressing the faulty trace as a temporal logic formula). This check can be easily integrated into classical diagnosis algorithms, such as Hitting Set Directed Acyclic Graph), either by encoding the diagnosis algorithm in an SVL script, or by connecting an existing algorithm to the CADP toolbox (implementing consistency checks by system calls to CADP). The approach is illustrated on the d74 circuit (frequently used in the literature on fault diagnosis) and an asynchronous model of the DES (Data Encryption Standard), where it was possible to determine all the manually introduced faults using the proposed approach. |
| Conclusions: |
LNT can also be used for fault diagnosis, increasing the possible
benefits and application of a formal model.
