Abstract: Maria performs simulation, exhaustive reachability analysis and on-the-fly LTL model checking of high-level Petri nets with fairness constraints. The algebra contains powerful built-in data types and operations. Models can be exported to low-level Petri nets and labelled transition systems. Translator programs allow Maria to analyse transition systems as well as distributed computer programs written in procedural or object-oriented languages, or high-level specifications such as SDL.
Maria has been implemented in portable C and C++, and it is freely available under the conditions of the GNU General Public License.
