Introduction

This page presents how Tapaal do cope efficiently with the OneSafe 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 422 runs (211 for Tapaal and 211 for GreatSPN, so there are 211 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 51 6 131   Smallest Memory Footprint
Tapaal = GreatSPN 0 Times tool wins 103 85
Tapaal > GreatSPN 0   Shortest Execution Time
Tapaal < GreatSPN 0 Times tool wins 173 15
Do not compete 0 0 0
Error detected 0 0 0  
Cannot Compute + Time-out 6 51 23


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 smart

Some statistics are displayed below, based on 422 runs (211 for Tapaal and 211 for smart, so there are 211 plots on each of the two charts). Each execution was allowed 1 hour and 16 GByte of memory. Then performance charts comparing Tapaal to smart are shown (you may click on one graph to enlarge it).

Statistics on the executions
  Tapaal smart Both tools   Tapaal smart
All computed OK 73 0 109   Smallest Memory Footprint
Tapaal = smart 0 Times tool wins 182 0
Tapaal > smart 0   Shortest Execution Time
Tapaal < smart 0 Times tool wins 182 0
Do not compete 0 20 0
Error detected 0 0 0  
Cannot Compute + Time-out 20 73 9


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 smart, denote cases where Tapaal computed less values than smart, 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, smart wins when points are above the diagonal.
