Tapaal compared to other tools («Surprise» models, UpperBounds)
Last Updated

Introduction

This page presents how Tapaal do cope efficiently with the UpperBounds examination face to the other participating tools. In this page, we consider «Surprise» models.

The next sections will show chart comparing performances in terms of both memory and execution time.The x-axis corresponds to the challenging tool where the y-axes represents Tapaal' performances. Thus, points below the diagonal of a chart denote comparisons favorables to the tool while others corresponds to situations where the challenging tool performs better.

You might also find plots out of the range that denote the case were at least one tool could not answer appropriately (error, time-out, could not compute or did not competed).

Tapaal versus GreatSPN

Some statistics are displayed below, based on 412 runs (206 for Tapaal and 206 for GreatSPN, so there are 206 plots on each of the two charts). Each execution was allowed 1 hour and 16 GByte of memory. Then performance charts comparing Tapaal to GreatSPN are shown (you may click on one graph to enlarge it).

Statistics on the executions
  Tapaal GreatSPN Both tools   Tapaal GreatSPN
All computed OK 108 0 81   Smallest Memory Footprint
Tapaal = GreatSPN 0 Times tool wins 185 15
Tapaal > GreatSPN 0   Shortest Execution Time
Tapaal < GreatSPN 11 Times tool wins 129 71
Do not compete 0 0 0
Error detected 0 0 0  
Cannot Compute + Time-out 0 108 6


On the chart below, denote cases where the two tools did computed all results without error, denote cases where the two tool did computed the same number of values (but not al values in the examination), denote cases where Tapaal computed more values than GreatSPN, denote cases where Tapaal computed less values than GreatSPN, denote the cases where at least one tool did not competed, denote the cases where at least one tool computed a bad value and denote the cases where at least one tool stated it could not compute a result or timed-out.

Tapaal wins when points are below the diagonal, GreatSPN wins when points are above the diagonal.

Tapaal versus ITS-Tools

Some statistics are displayed below, based on 412 runs (206 for Tapaal and 206 for ITS-Tools, so there are 206 plots on each of the two charts). Each execution was allowed 1 hour and 16 GByte of memory. Then performance charts comparing Tapaal to ITS-Tools are shown (you may click on one graph to enlarge it).

Statistics on the executions
  Tapaal ITS-Tools Both tools   Tapaal ITS-Tools
All computed OK 0 3 102   Smallest Memory Footprint
Tapaal = ITS-Tools 35 Times tool wins 160 43
Tapaal > ITS-Tools 19   Shortest Execution Time
Tapaal < ITS-Tools 44 Times tool wins 104 99
Do not compete 0 0 0
Error detected 0 0 0  
Cannot Compute + Time-out 3 0 3


On the chart below, denote cases where the two tools did computed all results without error, denote cases where the two tool did computed the same number of values (but not al values in the examination), denote cases where Tapaal computed more values than ITS-Tools, denote cases where Tapaal computed less values than ITS-Tools, denote the cases where at least one tool did not competed, denote the cases where at least one tool computed a bad value and denote the cases where at least one tool stated it could not compute a result or timed-out.

Tapaal wins when points are below the diagonal, ITS-Tools wins when points are above the diagonal.

Tapaal versus 2021-gold

Some statistics are displayed below, based on 412 runs (206 for Tapaal and 206 for 2021-gold, so there are 206 plots on each of the two charts). Each execution was allowed 1 hour and 16 GByte of memory. Then performance charts comparing Tapaal to 2021-gold are shown (you may click on one graph to enlarge it).

Statistics on the executions
  Tapaal 2021-gold Both tools   Tapaal 2021-gold
All computed OK 0 3 101   Smallest Memory Footprint
Tapaal = 2021-gold 37 Times tool wins 167 36
Tapaal > 2021-gold 17   Shortest Execution Time
Tapaal < 2021-gold 45 Times tool wins 122 81
Do not compete 0 0 0
Error detected 0 0 0  
Cannot Compute + Time-out 3 0 3


On the chart below, denote cases where the two tools did computed all results without error, denote cases where the two tool did computed the same number of values (but not al values in the examination), denote cases where Tapaal computed more values than 2021-gold, denote cases where Tapaal computed less values than 2021-gold, denote the cases where at least one tool did not competed, denote the cases where at least one tool computed a bad value and denote the cases where at least one tool stated it could not compute a result or timed-out.

Tapaal wins when points are below the diagonal, 2021-gold wins when points are above the diagonal.
