Many costly bugs come not from code, but from flawed designs: a common challenge in complex high-performance systems. TLA+ lets us model designs directly, test them for errors, and fix flaws before writing code. This session will provide a brief overview of how and why TLA+ works, and how it can be applied to find design bugs in low-latency systems.
