Abstract

Advanced computational models are transforming the way research is done in biology, by providing quantitative means to assess the validity of theories and hypotheses and allowing predictive capabilities, raising an urgent need to be able to systematically and efficiently analyze runtime properties of models. In this tutorial I describe key biological applications, modeling formalisms, property specification languages, and computational tools utilized in this domain, survey the techniques and research from the formal verification, machine learning and simulation communities that are currently being used, and outline opportunities for the runtime verification community to contribute new scalable methods.
