We will use the Kronos tool on Monday's lab. Please download and install the tool (and the examples) here. Executables for sun5, Linux and Windows (with Cygwin installed) are all provided. I have it installed on sun5. Please let me know if you have problem on installation.

As for examples, I will focus on the CSMA/CD protocol. You can find some description on the paper we discussed in my last presentation: "Kronos: A verification Tool for Real-Time Systems". We will move to the FDDI protocol if time permitted. You can find related documents (Kronos.pdf and fddi.pdf) here. The protocols involved here are a little bit complex. Although it is not necessary (since I will explain them at class), I do recommend that you have a look at them to get a general idea about how they work.
