Abstract :
We investigate the problem of the verification of epistemic properties of multiagent systems via model checking. Specifically, we extend and adapt methods based on ordered binary decision diagrams, a mainstream verification technique in reactive systems. We provide an algorithm, and present a software package that implements it. We discuss the software and benchmark it by means of a standard example in the literature, the dining cryptographers.
