Abstract

We use SAT-solving to construct adaptive distinguishing sequences and unique input/output sequences for finite state machines in the flavour of Mealy machines. These sequences solve the state identification and state verification problems respectively. Preliminary experiments evaluate our implementation and show that this approach via SAT-solving works well and is able to find many short sequences.
