Course Description

Overview

Explore the power of TLA+ in solving complex concurrency issues through a hands-on approach in this 39-minute conference talk from SREcon20 Americas. Dive into the world of specification and verification of discrete systems, including concurrent and distributed algorithms, as Markus A. Kuppe from Microsoft demonstrates how TLA+ can be used to build reliable systems. Learn how to describe system behavior using state machines written in a language based on mathematical set theory and temporal logic. Discover how to express safety and liveness properties, and gain insights into computer-assisted verification tools, including model checkers and interactive proof systems. Participate in a collective problem-solving exercise to address a subtle concurrency issue, illustrating how TLA+ can prevent system failures and reduce the need for emergency patching.
