In previous work, we obtained theoretical results on the verification of a rich model incorporating core elements of IBM's successful Guard-Stage-Milestone (GSM) artifact model. The results showed decidability of verification of temporal properties of a large class of GSM workflows and established its complexity. Following up on these results, the present paper reports on the implementation of SpinArt, a practical verifier based on the classical model-checking tool Spin. The implementation includes nontrivial optimizations and achieves good performance on real-world business process examples. Our results shed light on the capabilities and limitations of off-the-shelf verifiers in the context of data-driven workflows.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1705.09427v3","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1705.09427v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"spinart-a-spin-based-verifier-for-artifact","repo_url":"https://github.com/oi02lyl/has-verifier","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
