Abstract

A method of using a computer to analyze an extended finite state machine model of a system includes receiving at least one requirement expression, determining at least one path of states and transitions through the model, evaluating at least one of the requirement expressions based on at least one of the determined paths through the model to determine whether the path satisfies the requirement expression, and generating a report based on the evaluating.
