He succeeded beyond my most optimistic hopes. This paper is a preliminary report on the model checker. I was an author, at Yu's insistence, because I gave him some advice on the design of the model checker (more useful advice than just don't do it). Manolios worked at SRC as a summer intern and contributed the state-compression algorithm that is described in the paper, but which ultimately was not used in the model checker.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/model-checking-tla-specifications/}, pages = {54-66}, volume = {1703}, edition = {In Correct Hardware Design and Verification Methods (CHARME '99), Laurence Pierre and Thomas Kropf editors.
