Abstract
Distributed interactions can be suitably designed in terms of
choreographies
. Such abstractions can
be thought of as global descriptions of the coordination of several distributed parties.
Global as-
sertions
define contracts for choreographies by annotating multiparty session types with logical for-
mulae to validate the content of the exchanged messages. The introduction of such constraints is a
critical design issue as it may be hard to specify contracts that allow each party to be able to progress
without violating the contract. In this paper, we propose three methods that automatically correct
inconsistent global assertions. The methods are compared by discussing their applicability and the
relationships between the amended global assertions and the original (inconsistent) ones.
