Stochastic model checking is a recent extension of traditional model-checking techniques for the integrated analysis of both qualitative and quantitative system properties. This paper shows how stochastic model checking can be conveniently used to address a number of usability concerns that involve quantitative aspects of a user interface for the industrial groupware system thinkteam. thinkteam is a ready-to-use Product Data Management application developed by think3. Several aspects of the functional correctness, such as concurrency aspects and awareness aspects, of the groupware protocol underlying thinkteam and of its planned publish/subscribe notification service have been addressed in previous work by means of a traditional model-checking approach.
