摘要
This paper presents a methodology for analyzing multi-agent systems modeled in nested predicate transition nets. The objective is to automate the model analysis for complex systems, and provide a foundation for tool development. We formally define the translation rules that translate the multi-agent model to an executable PROMELA model, and demonstrate the translation with an example.
