Spin is a software verification tool for analyzing the consistency of asynchronous systems. Examples of asynchronous systems include multi-threaded programs, distributed systems, and communications protocols. Spin takes a system model specified in Promela (the PROcess MEta LAnguage). It also takes a specifciation of the requirements for logical correctness, and allows both interactive and exhaustive simulations of the system for verifying these properties.
