Teaching LTL and ω-automata with Spot
Abstract
Spot is a mature, open-source C++/Python library and toolset for Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) and ω-automata manipulation. While Spot is routinely used as a research and verification back-end, its rich visualization capabilities and Python interface also make it an attractive platform for teaching the connections between temporal logic formulas and the ω-automata that give them their semantics.
