Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study discusses the generation of the minimum length checking sequences for FSM-based protocol conformance testing. The discussion focuses on finding the minimal length of resulting checking sequences for an FSM under different conditions. Without interleaving state identification and transition verification sequences, four methods (D-method, W-method, Wp-method and UIOv-method) of generating minimum length test sequences for FSM$\rm \sb{s}$ with reliable reset feature are reviewed and provided to construct checking sequences. These four methods are then improved to generate minimum length checking sequences for FSM$\rm \sb{s}$ without reliable reset feature and provided to construct checking sequences. Moreover, the effects of interleaving the state identification and transition verification sequences on the length of the checking sequences are studied. An algorithm for interleaving the state identification and transition verification sequences generated by the above four methods with reliable reset feature is proposed. It is observed that the reduction in the length of checking sequences due to interleaving is significant. Finally, the two general models for constructing minimal length checking sequences using distinguishing sequences with interleaved state identification and transition verification sequences are proposed. The proof for the first model to find a minimum length checking sequence in polynomial time is provided. The sequences generated by using both models are proved to be checking sequences. Examples are provided as applications of all the proposed methods and models.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing number of computer networks has aroused users' interest in many and various fields of applications, in how a computer network can be built, and in how it may be used. The fundamental rules of computer networks are the protocols. "A protocol is a set of rules that governs the operation of functional units to achieve communication" [STA-86}. The book follows a practical approach to protocol speci fication and testing, but at the same time it introduces clearly and precisely the relevant theoretical fundamentals. The principal objectives of this work are: to familiarize readers with communication protocols, to present the main, formal description techniques, to apply various formal description techniques to protocol specification and testing. It is considered that the readership will primarily consist of protocol developers, protocol users, and all who utilize protocol testers. Secondly the book is suggested for postgraduate courses or other university courses dealing with communication networks and data communication. A large part of the book provides a comprehensive overview for managers; some parts are of especial interest to postal organizations. The book consists of three parts: the first part introduces the OS! Reference Model, it provides an overview of the most frequently used protocols and explains the fundamentals of protocol testing. The second part familiarizes readers with the methods used for protocol 5pecification, generation, and testing. Finite-state machines, formal grammars, Petri nets and some speCification languages (SDL, ESTELLE, LOTOS) are discussed in a pragmatic style. The third part deals with applications.

Book excerpt: This book deals with conformance testing for verification and validation of protocols for communication/distributed computer systems. The reader is introduced to this topic using the Finite State Machine (FSM) model together with a comprehensive review of past and current work. A detailed treatment of graph approaches for vector generation and fault coverage evaluation is presented using examples with real protocols.Qualitative and quantitative measures are introduced to quantify and compare these approaches, inclusive of the length of the generated test sequence and fault detection capabilities. Different techniques such as the Rural Chinese Postman Tour and compaction by test overlapping, are fully analyzed for achieving the desired figures of merit.Novel analytical frameworks such as the fault model and the test sequence generation, are proposed to facilitate a better understanding of the conformance testing process for the practicing engineer as well as an academic audience.

Book excerpt: IWPTS'95 (International Workshop on Protocol Test Systems) is being held this year at !NT (Institut National des Telecommunications), Evry, France, from 4 to 6 September, 1995. IWPTS'95 is the eighth of a series of annual meetings sponsored by the IFIP Working Group WG6.1 dedicated to "Architecture and Protocols for Computer Networks". The seven previous workshops were held in Vancouver (Canada, 1988), Berlin (Germany, 1989), Mclean (USA, 1990), Leidschendam (The Netherlands, 1991), Montreal (Canada, 1992), Pau (France, 1993) and Tokyo (Japan, 1994). The workshop is a meeting place where both research and industry, theory and practice come together. By bringing both researchers and practitioners together, IWPTS opens up the communication between these groups. This helps keep the research vital and improves the state of the practitioner's art. Forty-eight papers have been submitted to IWPTS'95 and all of them have been reviewed by the members of the Program Committee and additional reviewers. The completed reviewers list is included in this Proceedings. Based on these reviews, the Program Committee selected 26 for oral presentation and 4 to be presented as posters. Two specially invited papers complete the Workshop Program, which is composed of ten sessions: Testing Methods (Session 1), Test Environments (Session 2), Theoretical Framework (Session 3), Algorithms and Languages (Session 4), Test Generation 1 (Session 5), Testability (Session 6), Test Generation 2 (Session 7), Industrial Applications (Session 8), Distributed Testing and performance (Session 9) and Test Management (Session 10).

This book was released on 1992 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the general case, we give lower bounds (i.e., approximations to the greatest lower bound (GLB)) on the length of test sequences generated by any D-method without overlapping test segments as well as by any method employing a W-set (W-method) without overlapping test segments. We then establish a lower bound (i.e., an approximation to the GLB) on the length of test sequences generated by any D-method (or W-method) that overlaps test segments. It is observed that the reduction in the length of test sequences generated by any D-method (or W-method) due to overlapping is significant. Thus, two types of efficient algorithms based on overlapping test segments are established for both a method employing a distinguishing sequence and a method employing a W-set. The first type of efficient algorithms utilize the maximum-cardinality minimum-cost matching algorithm. The second type of efficient algorithms utilize the rural Chinese postman tour algorithm. Moreover, the sufficiency conditions for the second type of algorithms to find a minimum length test sequence is polynomial time are indicated. Furthermore, the sufficiency conditions for the second type of algorithms to achieve the optimal length test sequences are discussed. (Abstract shortened by UMI.).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study addresses the synchronization problem that arises during the application of a predetermined test sequence in some test architectures used for protocol conformance testing. A solution to this problem is to construct synchronizable test sequences. For FSM-based protocol specifications, a necessary and sufficient condition is given for the existence of a synchronizable test sequence for a given FSM. A polynomial time algorithm is then developed to determine the existence of such a sequence for a given FSM. A duplex digraph method is developed which transforms the order-specified digraph representing an FSM into a duplex digraph. Using the duplex digraph representation of a given FSM, a polynomial time algorithm is developed to generate a synchronizable test sequence for the FSM which checks only the output function of the FSM. The W-, D- and UIO-methods are extended to an FSM represented by an order-specified digraph by employing synchronizable W-sets, synchronizable DS sequences and synchronizable UIO sequences, respectively. Polynomial time algorithms are then developed to generate synchronizable test sequences for a given FSM which check the transfer function as well as the output function.

Book excerpt: This PSTV'94 Symposium is the fourteenth of a series of annual meetings organized under the auspices of IFIP W.G. 6.1, a Working Group dedicated to "Architectures and Protocols for Computer Networks". This is the oldest and most established symposium in the emerging field of protocol engineering which has spawn many international conferences including FORTE (International Conference on Formal Description Tech niques), IWPTS (International Workshop on Protocol Test Systems), ICNP (Interna tional Conference on Network Protocols) and CAY (Conference on Computer-Aided Verification). The main objective of this PSTV symposium is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners in industry and academia interested in advances in using formal methods and methodologies to specify, develop, test and verify communication protocols and distributed systems. This year's PSTV symposium enjoys a nice mixture of formal methods and practical issues in network protocols through the invited addresses of three outstanding speakers, Ed Brinksma (University of Twente), Raj Jain (Ohio State University) and David Tennenhouse (MIT) as well as 5 tutorials, in addition to 9 techni cal sessions and two practical panel sessions. The 5 tutorials are offered on the first day in two parallel tracks for intensive exposure on hot topics of current interest. This year, out of 51 submissions the Program Committee selected 18 regular papers (with an allotment of 16 pages in the Proceedings) and 9 mini-papers (of 8 pages).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "This paper discusses a new and combined approach to the verification and testing of communication protocols for an asynchronous model of communication. The approach is based on probabilistic concepts about protocol state transitions and communication channels. An interesting feature of the proposed approach is that the verification is carried out on the most probable part of the protocol first. The technique can be used for generating probabilistic test sequences for the conformance testing of communication protocols to standards. A probabilistic test sequence generated by this technique will test the most probable states of a protocol more promptly. The proposed method promises to yield shorter protocol test sequences compared with other methods for generating tests."
