  text: Quantitative extensions of temporal logics have recently attracted significant
    attention. In this work, we study frequency LTL (fLTL), an extension of LTL which
    allows to speak about frequencies of events along an execution. Such an extension
    is particularly useful for probabilistic systems that often cannot fulfil strict
    qualitative guarantees on the behaviour. It has been recently shown that controller
    synthesis for Markov decision processes and fLTL is decidable when all the bounds
    on frequencies are 1. As a step towards a complete quantitative solution, we show
    that the problem is decidable for the fragment fLTL\GU, where U does not occur
    in the scope of G (but still F can). Our solution is based on a novel translation
    of such quantitative formulae into equivalent deterministic automata.

  text: 'We consider Markov decision processes (MDPs) with specifications given as
    Büchi (liveness) objectives, and examine the problem of computing the set of almost-sure
    winning vertices such that the objective can be ensured with probability 1 from
    these vertices. We study for the first time the average-case complexity of the
    classical algorithm for computing the set of almost-sure winning vertices for
    MDPs with Büchi objectives. Our contributions are as follows: First, we show that
    for MDPs with constant out-degree the expected number of iterations is at most
    logarithmic and the average-case running time is linear (as compared to the worst-case
    linear number of iterations and quadratic time complexity). Second, for the average-case
    analysis over all MDPs we show that the expected number of iterations is constant
    and the average-case running time is linear (again as compared to the worst-case
    linear number of iterations and quadratic time complexity). Finally we also show
    that when all MDPs are equally likely, the probability that the classical algorithm
    requires more than a constant number of iterations is exponentially small.'

  text: We propose a flexible exchange format for ω-automata, as typically used in
    formal verification, and implement support for it in a range of established tools.
    Our aim is to simplify the interaction of tools, helping the research community
    to build upon other people’s work. A key feature of the format is the use of very
    generic acceptance conditions, specified by Boolean combinations of acceptance
    primitives, rather than being limited to common cases such as Büchi, Streett,
    or Rabin. Such flexibility in the choice of acceptance conditions can be exploited
    in applications, for example in probabilistic model checking, and furthermore
    encourages the development of acceptance-agnostic tools for automata manipulations.
    The format allows acceptance conditions that are either state-based or transition-based,
    and also supports alternating automata.

  text: Interprocedural analysis is at the heart of numerous applications in programming
    languages, such as alias analysis, constant propagation, etc. Recursive state
    machines (RSMs) are standard models for interprocedural analysis. We consider
    a general framework with RSMs where the transitions are labeled from a semiring,
    and path properties are algebraic with semiring operations. RSMs with algebraic
    path properties can model interprocedural dataflow analysis problems, the shortest
    path problem, the most probable path problem, etc. The traditional algorithms
    for interprocedural analysis focus on path properties where the starting point
    is fixed as the entry point of a specific method. In this work, we consider possible
    multiple queries as required in many applications such as in alias analysis. The
    study of multiple queries allows us to bring in a very important algorithmic distinction
    between the resource usage of the one-time preprocessing vs for each individual
    query. The second aspect that we consider is that the control flow graphs for
    most programs have constant treewidth. Our main contributions are simple and implementable
    algorithms that supportmultiple queries for algebraic path properties for RSMs
    that have constant treewidth. Our theoretical results show that our algorithms
    have small additional one-time preprocessing, but can answer subsequent queries
    significantly faster as compared to the current best-known solutions for several
    important problems, such as interprocedural reachability and shortest path. We
    provide a prototype implementation for interprocedural reachability and intraprocedural
    shortest path that gives a significant speed-up on several benchmarks.

  text: "For deterministic systems, a counterexample to a property can simply be an
    error trace, whereas counterexamples in probabilistic systems are necessarily
    more complex. For instance, a set of erroneous traces with a sufficient cumulative
    probability mass can be used. Since these are too large objects to understand
    and manipulate, compact representations such as subchains have been considered.
    In the case of probabilistic systems with non-determinism, the situation is even
    more complex. While a subchain for a given strategy (or scheduler, resolving non-determinism)
    is a straightforward choice, we take a different approach. Instead, we focus on
    the strategy itself, and extract the most important decisions it makes, and present
    its succinct representation.\r\nThe key tools we employ to achieve this are (1)
    introducing a concept of importance of a state w.r.t. the strategy, and (2) learning
    using decision trees. There are three main consequent advantages of our approach.
    Firstly, it exploits the quantitative information on states, stressing the more
    important decisions. Secondly, it leads to a greater variability and degree of
    freedom in representing the strategies. Thirdly, the representation uses a self-explanatory
    data structure. In summary, our approach produces more succinct and more explainable
    strategies, as opposed to e.g. binary decision diagrams. Finally, our experimental
    results show that we can extract several rules describing the strategy even for
    very large systems that do not fit in memory, and based on the rules explain the
    erroneous behaviour."

  text: We consider the quantitative analysis problem for interprocedural control-flow
    graphs (ICFGs). The input consists of an ICFG, a positive weight function that
    assigns every transition a positive integer-valued number, and a labelling of
    the transitions (events) as good, bad, and neutral events. The weight function
    assigns to each transition a numerical value that represents ameasure of how good
    or bad an event is. The quantitative analysis problem asks whether there is a
    run of the ICFG where the ratio of the sum of the numerical weights of good events
    versus the sum of weights of bad events in the long-run is at least a given threshold
    (or equivalently, to compute the maximal ratio among all valid paths in the ICFG).
    The quantitative analysis problem for ICFGs can be solved in polynomial time,
    and we present an efficient and practical algorithm for the problem. We show that
    several problems relevant for static program analysis, such as estimating the
    worst-case execution time of a program or the average energy consumption of a
    mobile application, can be modeled in our framework. We have implemented our algorithm
    as a tool in the Java Soot framework. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our
    approach with two case studies. First, we show that our framework provides a sound
    approach (no false positives) for the analysis of inefficiently-used containers.
    Second, we show that our approach can also be used for static profiling of programs
    which reasons about methods that are frequently invoked. Our experimental results
    show that our tool scales to relatively large benchmarks, and discovers relevant
    and useful information that can be used to optimize performance of the programs.

  text: We consider the core algorithmic problems related to verification of systems
    with respect to three classical quantitative properties, namely, the mean-payoff
    property, the ratio property, and the minimum initial credit for energy property.
    The algorithmic problem given a graph and a quantitative property asks to compute
    the optimal value (the infimum value over all traces) from every node of the graph.
    We consider graphs with constant treewidth, and it is well-known that the control-flow
    graphs of most programs have constant treewidth. Let n denote the number of nodes
    of a graph, m the number of edges (for constant treewidth graphs m=O(n)) and W
    the largest absolute value of the weights. Our main theoretical results are as
    follows. First, for constant treewidth graphs we present an algorithm that approximates
    the mean-payoff value within a multiplicative factor of ϵ in time O(n⋅log(n/ϵ))
    and linear space, as compared to the classical algorithms that require quadratic
    time. Second, for the ratio property we present an algorithm that for constant
    treewidth graphs works in time O(n⋅log(|a⋅b|))=O(n⋅log(n⋅W)), when the output
    is ab, as compared to the previously best known algorithm with running time O(n2⋅log(n⋅W)).
    Third, for the minimum initial credit problem we show that (i) for general graphs
    the problem can be solved in O(n2⋅m) time and the associated decision problem
    can be solved in O(n⋅m) time, improving the previous known O(n3⋅m⋅log(n⋅W)) and
    O(n2⋅m) bounds, respectively; and (ii) for constant treewidth graphs we present
    an algorithm that requires O(n⋅logn) time, improving the previous known O(n4⋅log(n⋅W))
    bound. We have implemented some of our algorithms and show that they present a
    significant speedup on standard benchmarks.

  text: The synthesis problem asks for the automatic construction of a system from
    its specification. In the traditional setting, the system is “constructed from
    scratch” rather than composed from reusable components. However, this is rare
    in practice, and almost every non-trivial software system relies heavily on the
    use of libraries of reusable components. Recently, Lustig and Vardi introduced
    dataflow and controlflow synthesis from libraries of reusable components. They
    proved that dataflow synthesis is undecidable, while controlflow synthesis is
    decidable. The problem of controlflow synthesis from libraries of probabilistic
    components was considered by Nain, Lustig and Vardi, and was shown to be decidable
    for qualitative analysis (that asks that the specification be satisfied with probability
    1). Our main contribution for controlflow synthesis from probabilistic components
    is to establish better complexity bounds for the qualitative analysis problem,
    and to show that the more general quantitative problem is undecidable. For the
    qualitative analysis, we show that the problem (i) is EXPTIME-complete when the
    specification is given as a deterministic parity word automaton, improving the
    previously known 2EXPTIME upper bound; and (ii) belongs to UP ∩ coUP and is parity-games
    hard, when the specification is given directly as a parity condition on the components,
    improving the previously known EXPTIME upper bound.

  text: The edit distance between two words w1, w2 is the minimal number of word operations
    (letter insertions, deletions, and substitutions) necessary to transform w1 to
    w2. The edit distance generalizes to languages L1,L2, where the edit distance
    is the minimal number k such that for every word from L1 there exists a word in
    L2 with edit distance at most k. We study the edit distance computation problem
    between pushdown automata and their subclasses. The problem of computing edit
    distance to pushdown automata is undecidable, and in practice, the interesting
    question is to compute the edit distance from a pushdown automaton (the implementation,
    a standard model for programs with recursion) to a regular language (the specification).
    In this work, we present a complete picture of decidability and complexity for
    deciding whether, for a given threshold k, the edit distance from a pushdown automaton
    to a finite automaton is at most k.

  text: Cancer results from an uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. Sequentially
    accumulated genetic and epigenetic alterations decrease cell death and increase
    cell replication. We used mathematical models to quantify the effect of driver
    gene mutations. The recently developed targeted therapies can lead to dramatic
    regressions. However, in solid cancers, clinical responses are often short-lived
    because resistant cancer cells evolve. We estimated that approximately 50 different
    mutations can confer resistance to a typical targeted therapeutic agent. We find
    that resistant cells are likely to be present in expanded subclones before the
    start of the treatment. The dominant strategy to prevent the evolution of resistance
    is combination therapy. Our analytical results suggest that in most patients,
    dual therapy, but not monotherapy, can result in long-term disease control. However,
    long-term control can only occur if there are no possible mutations in the genome
    that can cause cross-resistance to both drugs. Furthermore, we showed that simultaneous
    therapy with two drugs is much more likely to result in long-term disease control
    than sequential therapy with the same drugs. To improve our understanding of the
    underlying subclonal evolution we reconstruct the evolutionary history of a patient's
    cancer from next-generation sequencing data of spatially-distinct DNA samples.
    Using a quantitative measure of genetic relatedness, we found that pancreatic
    cancers and their metastases demonstrated a higher level of relatedness than that
    expected for any two cells randomly taken from a normal tissue. This minimal amount
    of genetic divergence among advanced lesions indicates that genetic heterogeneity,
    when quantitatively defined, is not a fundamental feature of the natural history
    of untreated pancreatic cancers. Our newly developed, phylogenomic tool Treeomics
    finds evidence for seeding patterns of metastases and can directly be used to
    discover rules governing the evolution of solid malignancies to transform cancer
    into a more predictable disease.

  text: Multi-dimensional mean-payoff and energy games provide the mathematical foundation
    for the quantitative study of reactive systems, and play a central role in the
    emerging quantitative theory of verification and synthesis. In this work, we study
    the strategy synthesis problem for games with such multi-dimensional objectives
    along with a parity condition, a canonical way to express ω ω -regular conditions.
    While in general, the winning strategies in such games may require infinite memory,
    for synthesis the most relevant problem is the construction of a finite-memory
    winning strategy (if one exists). Our main contributions are as follows. First,
    we show a tight exponential bound (matching upper and lower bounds) on the memory
    required for finite-memory winning strategies in both multi-dimensional mean-payoff
    and energy games along with parity objectives. This significantly improves the
    triple exponential upper bound for multi energy games (without parity) that could
    be derived from results in literature for games on vector addition systems with
    states. Second, we present an optimal symbolic and incremental algorithm to compute
    a finite-memory winning strategy (if one exists) in such games. Finally, we give
    a complete characterization of when finite memory of strategies can be traded
    off for randomness. In particular, we show that for one-dimension mean-payoff
    parity games, randomized memoryless strategies are as powerful as their pure finite-memory
    counterparts.

  text: "We revisit the parameterized model checking problem for token-passing systems
    and specifications in indexed CTL  ∗ \\X. Emerson and Namjoshi (1995, 2003) have
    shown that parameterized model checking of indexed CTL  ∗ \\X in uni-directional
    token rings can be reduced to checking rings up to some cutoff size. Clarke et
    al. (2004) have shown a similar result for general topologies and indexed LTL
    \\X, provided processes cannot choose the directions for sending or receiving
    the token.\r\nWe unify and substantially extend these results by systematically
    exploring fragments of indexed CTL  ∗ \\X with respect to general topologies.
    For each fragment we establish whether a cutoff exists, and for some concrete
    topologies, such as rings, cliques and stars, we infer small cutoffs. Finally,
    we show that the problem becomes undecidable, and thus no cutoffs exist, if processes
    are allowed to choose the directions in which they send or from which they receive
    the token."

  text: "Two-player games on graphs provide the theoretical framework for many important
    problems such as reactive synthesis. While the traditional study of two-player
    zero-sum games has been extended to multi-player games with several notions of
    equilibria, they are decidable only for perfect-information games, whereas several
    applications require imperfect-information games.\r\nIn this paper we propose
    a new notion of equilibria, called doomsday equilibria, which is a strategy profile
    such that all players satisfy their own objective, and if any coalition of players
    deviates and violates even one of the players objective, then the objective of
    every player is violated.\r\nWe present algorithms and complexity results for
    deciding the existence of doomsday equilibria for various classes of ω-regular
    objectives, both for imperfect-information games, and for perfect-information
    games.We provide optimal complexity bounds for imperfect-information games, and
    in most cases for perfect-information games."

  text: The classical (boolean) notion of refinement for behavioral interfaces of
    system components is the alternating refinement preorder. In this paper, we define
    a distance for interfaces, called interface simulation distance. It makes the
    alternating refinement preorder quantitative by, intuitively, tolerating errors
    (while counting them) in the alternating simulation game. We show that the interface
    simulation distance satisfies the triangle inequality, that the distance between
    two interfaces does not increase under parallel composition with a third interface,
    that the distance between two interfaces can be bounded from above and below by
    distances between abstractions of the two interfaces, and how to synthesize an
    interface from incompatible requirements. We illustrate the framework, and the
    properties of the distances under composition of interfaces, with two case studies.

  text: Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) composed of low-power, low-cost sensor nodes
    are expected to form the backbone of future intelligent networks for a broad range
    of civil, industrial and military applications. These sensor nodes are often deployed
    through random spreading, and function in dynamic environments. Many applications
    of WSNs such as pollution tracking, forest fire detection, and military surveillance
    require knowledge of the location of constituent nodes. But the use of technologies
    such as GPS on all nodes is prohibitive due to power and cost constraints. So,
    the sensor nodes need to autonomously determine their locations. Most localization
    techniques use anchor nodes with known locations to determine the position of
    remaining nodes. Localization techniques have two conflicting requirements. On
    one hand, an ideal localization technique should be computationally simple and
    on the other hand, it must be resistant to attacks that compromise anchor nodes.
    In this paper, we propose a computationally light-weight game theoretic secure
    localization technique and demonstrate its effectiveness in comparison to existing
    techniques.

  text: Unbiased high-throughput massively parallel sequencing methods have transformed
    the process of discovery of novel putative driver gene mutations in cancer. In
    chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), these methods have yielded several unexpected
    findings, including the driver genes SF3B1, NOTCH1 and POT1. Recent analysis,
    utilizing down-sampling of existing datasets, has shown that the discovery process
    of putative drivers is far from complete across cancer. In CLL, while driver gene
    mutations affecting >10% of patients were efficiently discovered with previously
    published CLL cohorts of up to 160 samples subjected to whole exome sequencing
    (WES), this sample size has only 0.78 power to detect drivers affecting 5% of
    patients, and only 0.12 power for drivers affecting 2% of patients. These calculations
    emphasize the need to apply unbiased WES to larger patient cohorts.

  text: 'We consider two-player zero-sum partial-observation stochastic games on graphs.
    Based on the information available to the players these games can be classified
    as follows: (a) general partial-observation (both players have partial view of
    the game); (b) one-sided partial-observation (one player has partial-observation
    and the other player has complete-observation); and (c) perfect-observation (both
    players have complete view of the game). The one-sided partial-observation games
    subsumes the important special case of one-player partial-observation stochastic
    games (or partial-observation Markov decision processes (POMDPs)). Based on the
    randomization available for the strategies, (a) the players may not be allowed
    to use randomization (pure strategies), or (b) they may choose a probability distribution
    over actions but the actual random choice is external and not visible to the player
    (actions invisible), or (c) they may use full randomization. We consider all these
    classes of games with reachability, and parity objectives that can express all
    ω-regular objectives. The analysis problems are classified into the qualitative
    analysis that asks for the existence of a strategy that ensures the objective
    with probability 1; and the quantitative analysis that asks for the existence
    of a strategy that ensures the objective with probability at least λ (0,1). In
    this talk we will cover a wide range of results: for perfect-observation games;
    for POMDPs; for one-sided partial-observation games; and for general partial-observation
    games.'

  text: We present a general framework for applying machine-learning algorithms to
    the verification of Markov decision processes (MDPs). The primary goal of these
    techniques is to improve performance by avoiding an exhaustive exploration of
    the state space. Our framework focuses on probabilistic reachability, which is
    a core property for verification, and is illustrated through two distinct instantiations.
    The first assumes that full knowledge of the MDP is available, and performs a
    heuristic-driven partial exploration of the model, yielding precise lower and
    upper bounds on the required probability. The second tackles the case where we
    may only sample the MDP, and yields probabilistic guarantees, again in terms of
    both the lower and upper bounds, which provides efficient stopping criteria for
    the approximation. The latter is the first extension of statistical model checking
    for unbounded properties inMDPs. In contrast with other related techniques, our
    approach is not restricted to time-bounded (finite-horizon) or discounted properties,
    nor does it assume any particular properties of the MDP. We also show how our
    methods extend to LTL objectives. We present experimental results showing the
    performance of our framework on several examples.

  text: Recently, there has been an effort to add quantitative objectives to formal
    verification and synthesis. We introduce and investigate the extension of temporal
    logics with quantitative atomic assertions. At the heart of quantitative objectives
    lies the accumulation of values along a computation. It is often the accumulated
    sum, as with energy objectives, or the accumulated average, as with mean-payoff
    objectives. We investigate the extension of temporal logics with the prefix-accumulation
    assertions Sum(v) ≥ c and Avg(v) ≥ c, where v is a numeric (or Boolean) variable
    of the system, c is a constant rational number, and Sum(v) and Avg(v) denote the
    accumulated sum and average of the values of v from the beginning of the computation
    up to the current point in time. We also allow the path-accumulation assertions
    LimInfAvg(v) ≥ c and LimSupAvg(v) ≥ c, referring to the average value along an
    entire infinite computation. We study the border of decidability for such quantitative
    extensions of various temporal logics. In particular, we show that extending the
    fragment of CTL that has only the EX, EF, AX, and AG temporal modalities with
    both prefix-accumulation assertions, or extending LTL with both path-accumulation
    assertions, results in temporal logics whose model-checking problem is decidable.
    Moreover, the prefix-accumulation assertions may be generalized with &quot;controlled
    accumulation,&quot; allowing, for example, to specify constraints on the average
    waiting time between a request and a grant. On the negative side, we show that
    this branching-time logic is, in a sense, the maximal logic with one or both of
    the prefix-accumulation assertions that permits a decidable model-checking procedure.
    Extending a temporal logic that has the EG or EU modalities, such as CTL or LTL,
    makes the problem undecidable.

  text: 'A fundamental question in biology is the following: what is the time scale
    that is needed for evolutionary innovations? There are many results that characterize
    single steps in terms of the fixation time of new mutants arising in populations
    of certain size and structure. But here we ask a different question, which is
    concerned with the much longer time scale of evolutionary trajectories: how long
    does it take for a population exploring a fitness landscape to find target sequences
    that encode new biological functions? Our key variable is the length, (Formula
    presented.) of the genetic sequence that undergoes adaptation. In computer science
    there is a crucial distinction between problems that require algorithms which
    take polynomial or exponential time. The latter are considered to be intractable.
    Here we develop a theoretical approach that allows us to estimate the time of
    evolution as function of (Formula presented.) We show that adaptation on many
    fitness landscapes takes time that is exponential in (Formula presented.) even
    if there are broad selection gradients and many targets uniformly distributed
    in sequence space. These negative results lead us to search for specific mechanisms
    that allow evolution to work on polynomial time scales. We study a regeneration
    process and show that it enables evolution to work in polynomial time.'
