Abstract

In this paper, we present the llvm2csp tool which extracts CSP models from the LLVM compiler intermediate representation of concurrent programs. The generation of CSP models is controlled by user annotations and designed to create models of different levels of abstraction for subsequent analysis with standard CSP tools.
