Abstract: We study the consistency checking problem, which consists in determining whether, for a given program and a trace (e.g., an execution graph), there exists an execution of the program that satisfies all the relations of the trace. This problem has been widely explored for various programming models In this work, we focus on event-driven programs, which extend concurrent shared-memory programs by allowing threads—called handlers—to send and receive messages. Each handler has a mailbox for incoming messages, which are processed sequentially. However, message executions of different handlers may interleave. We propose an equivalent axiomatic model for event-driven programs and analyze the complexity of their consistency checking problem.
