ISP -LRB- `` In-situ Partial Order '' -RRB- is a tool for the formal verification of MPI programs developed within the School of Computing at the University of Utah .. MPI. Message Passing Interface. Like model checkers , such as SPIN , ISP verifies the complete state space of a system for a set of safety properties .. model checkers. model checkers. SPIN. SPIN model checker. safety properties. model checking. However , unlike model checkers , ISP performs code level verification .. model checkers. model checkers. This means that the tool verifies all relevant interleavings of a concurrent program by replaying the actual program code without building verification models .. This idea was pioneered in a number of tools , notably by Godefroid , in his VeriSoft tool .. Other recent tools of this genre include the Java Pathfinder , Microsoft 's CHESS tool , and MODIST .. Relevant interleavings are computed using a customized dynamic partial order reduction algorithm called POE .. ISP has been used to successfully verify up to 14,000 lines of MPI / C code for deadlocks and assertion violations .. MPI. Message Passing Interface. It currently supports over 60 MPI 2.1 functions , and has been tested with MPICH2 , OpenMPI , and Microsoft MPI libraries .. MPI. Message Passing Interface. MPI 2.1. Message Passing Interface.
