text: State-transition systems communicating by shared variables have been the underlying
model of choice for applications of model checking. Such formalisms, however,
have difficulty with modeling process creation or death and communication reconfigurability.
Here, we introduce “dynamic reactive modules” (DRM), a state-transition modeling
formalism that supports dynamic reconfiguration and creation/death of processes.
The resulting formalism supports two types of variables, data variables and reference
variables. Reference variables enable changing the connectivity between processes
and referring to instances of processes. We show how this new formalism supports
parallel composition and refinement through trace containment. DRM provide a natural
language for modeling (and ultimately reasoning about) biological systems and
multiple threads communicating through shared variables.
