Random state spaces.
• N number of states (4).
• λ fanout (2).
/ Informatica PAGE 5
Each state has λ outgoing states to a randomly chosen other state.
Predict the size of a state space
/ Informatica PAGE 6
• m rabbits seen (transitions): 1, 3, 5,....
• im unique rabbits are unique (states): 1, 2, 3,....
Predict N, the total number of states.

Parallel random state spaces.
/ Informatica PAGE 9
A realistic random state space is the
parallel composition of p random state spaces.

Take enough layers and estimate: λ1, λ2, N1, N2.
A remark on debugging.

1000 states 103 states α=0.05 probability that error remains
undetected with a test of length m.
Some open problems.
• Is the model really that good?
• How to reduce the extreme calculational effort to do the predictions?
• Can we predict the index of parallelism? What is the correct number of parallel processes to model a particular system?
• How to estimate the probability to hit an ‘erroneous state’ in a random state space [no, contrary what you think, this is not known...].
