14-Oct-2011: BLAST 2.7 released

Linux Verification Center announces the release of BLAST 2.7 - a new version of an open source model checker for C programs. The tool automatically checks if a C program satisfies behavioral properties of the interfaces it uses. BLAST is based on counterexample-driven automatic abstraction refinement to construct an abstract model which is model checked for safety properties.
