NAME

       ltscompare - compare two LTSs

SYNOPSIS

       ltscompare [OPTION]... [INFILE1] INFILE2

DESCRIPTION

       Determine  whether  or  not  the  labelled transition systems (LTSs) in INFILE1 and INFILE2 are related by some equivalence or preorder. If
       INFILE1 is not supplied, stdin is used.

       The input formats are determined by the contents of INFILE1 and INFILE2.  Options --in1 and --in2 can be used to force the input format	of
       INFILE1 and INFILE2, respectively. The supported formats are:
	 'aut' for the Aldebaran format (CADP),
	 'dot' for the GraphViz format,
	 'fsm' for the Finite State Machine format,
	 'lts' for the mCRL2 LTS format, or
	 'svc' for the SVC format

OPTIONS

       OPTION can be any of the following:

       -c, --counter-example
	      generate counter example traces if the input lts's are not equivalent

       -eNAME, --equivalence=NAME
	      use equivalence NAME:
		'bisim' for strong bisimilarity,
		'branching-bisim' for branching bisimilarity,
		'dpbranching-bisim' for divergence preserving branching bisimilarity,
		'sim' for strong simulation equivalence,
		'trace' for strong trace equivalence, or
		'weak-trace' for weak trace equivalence (not allowed in combination with -p/--preorder)

       -iFORMAT, --in1=FORMAT
	      use FORMAT as the format for INFILE1 (or stdin)

       -jFORMAT, --in2=FORMAT
	      use FORMAT as the format for INFILE2

       -pNAME, --preorder=NAME
	      use preorder NAME:
		'sim' for strong simulation preorder,
		'trace' for strong trace preorder, or
		'weak-trace' for weak trace preorder (not allowed in combination with -e/--equivalence)

       --tau=ACTNAMES
	      consider	actions with a name in the comma separated list ACTNAMES to be internal (tau) actions in addition to those defined as such
	      by the input

       --timings[=FILE]
	      append timing measurements to FILE. Measurements are written to standard error if no FILE is provided

       Standard options:

       -q, --quiet
	      do not display warning messages

       -v, --verbose
	      display short intermediate messages

       -d, --debug
	      display detailed intermediate messages

       --log-level=LEVEL
	      display intermediate messages up to and including level

       -h, --help
	      display help information

       --version
	      display version information
