Model Checking Temporal Logic Formulas Using Sticker Automata

Table 1

State of the art of DNA model checking and its open problems.

Temporal logicState of the art (the formulas which have been checked)The problems to be solved (the formulas which cannot be checked yet)

LTLAll the four basic formulasGeneral formulas and cellular model checking
CTLThe basic formula EFAnother seven basic formulas (will be studied in this paper)
ITLNothing reportedAll the two basic formulas (will be studied in this paper)
PTLNothing reportedAll the one formula (will be studied in this paper)
DC It is infeasible due to the limitation of the current biochemical experimental technique
