Abstract

Probabilistic Model Checking is a Formal Verification method which is able to guarantee, according to a specified probability, the correctness of a system that presents stochastic behavior. It is an approach which has been applied to several different application domains such as biology, communication and network protocols, security, dependability, just to name a few. In this paper, we realize about the feasibility of Probabilistic Model Checking to analyze power supply systems. We modelled and evaluated two types of systems: a solar power system and batteries of artificial satellites. Our findings show that Probabilistic Model Checking provides accurate results and can be used as a complementary approach to traditional simulation tools for Model-Driven Development of complex industrial applications.
