Abstract

We present timed branching bisimulation in an environment which allows us to design a new bisimulation-checking algorithm with enhanced performance by reducing state spaces with shared environment state information between the model and the specification automatas. We also propose non-Zeno bisimulation in an environment that fully characterizes TCTL formulas. We then report our implementation and experiments with the ideas.
