Abstract
This paper introduce a tool named PPTL_Spin which supports the verification of temporal properties specified with Propositional Projection Temporal Logic (PPTL). To this end, a translator from PPTL formulas to Büchi automata (PPTL2BA) is implemented and integrated in SPIN. We evaluate efficiency of the translator by parameter formulas and show how PPTL_SPIN works with a case study.
