input: [Patent] US 7,886,273 [GSFC Case Number] GSC-15079-1 [Description] In this invention, policies developed for autonomic computing systems can be verified, to ensure that the policies are both reasonable and complete. The code for implementing these policies can then be automatically generated. More specifically, the technology described herein provides automated analysis, validation, verification, and generation of complex procedures, often implemented as policies. The systems, methods and apparatus may include inferring an equivalent formal model from one or more policies. Such a model can be analyzed for contradictions, conflicts, use of resources before the resources are available, competition for resources, and so forth. From such a formal model, an implementation can be automatically generated in a variety of notations. An implementation may include traditional programming language code, machine language code, scripts, and/or procedures. [Title] 
output: Systems, methods and apparatus for generation and verification of policies in autonomic computing systems
