Typically, this process requires proving many invariants, and automatically discharging these proof obligations would save the user a significant amount of effort. To accomplish this we present techniques for automatically verifying that invariants are inductive in a given context, and identify a class of systems and a logic for expressing invariants and contexts for which the problem is decidable %U http://www.irisa.fr/vertecs/Publis/Ps/2001-TPHOL.ps.gz %D 2001
