Facts

Purpose
UPPAAL is an integrated environment for modeling, simulation, and verification of real-time systems represented as networks of timed automata.uppaal.org · 3 Oct 2026
Modeling
Its description language supports clock and data variables, including bounded integers and arrays, in networks of automata.uppaal.org · 3 Oct 2026
Verification
The model checker checks invariant and reachability properties through symbolic state-space exploration and can generate diagnostic traces.uppaal.org · 3 Oct 2026
Statistical analysis
The Statistical Model Checking engine can estimate probabilities, compare a probability with a value, and compare two probabilities.uppaal.org · 3 Oct 2026
Strategy analysis
UPPAAL Stratego supports generation, optimization, comparison, and performance exploration of strategies for stochastic priced timed games.uppaal.org · 3 Oct 2026
Additional tools
The site lists related tools and extensions including CORA, TRON, TIGA, ECDAR, and COSHY for cost-optimal analysis, testing, timed games, refinement, and hybrid-system control.uppaal.org · 3 Oct 2026
Use cases
The site identifies real-time controllers and communication protocols with timing-critical behavior as typical application areas.uppaal.org · 3 Oct 2026
Desktop platforms
The current download page provides packages for Windows, macOS, and Linux, including macOS x86_64 and Aarch64 packages.uppaal.org · 3 Oct 2026
