text: Planning in hybrid domains poses a special challenge due to the involved mixed
discrete-continuous dynamics. A recent solving approach for such domains is based
on applying model checking techniques on a translation of PDDL+ planning problems
to hybrid automata. However, the proposed translation is limited because must
behavior is only overapproximated, and hence, processes and events are not reflected
exactly. In this paper, we present the theoretical foundation of an exact PDDL+
translation. We propose a schema to convert a hybrid automaton with must transitions
into an equivalent hybrid automaton featuring only may transitions.

text: We consider the satisfiability problem for modal logic over first-order definable
classes of frames.We confirm the conjecture from Hemaspaandra and Schnoor [2008]
that modal logic is decidable over classes definable by universal Horn formulae.
We provide a full classification of Horn formulae with respect to the complexity
of the corresponding satisfiability problem. It turns out, that except for the
trivial case of inconsistent formulae, local satisfiability is eitherNP-complete
or PSPACE-complete, and global satisfiability is NP-complete, PSPACE-complete,
or ExpTime-complete. We also show that the finite satisfiability problem for modal
logic over Horn definable classes of frames is decidable. On the negative side,
we show undecidability of two related problems. First, we exhibit a simple universal
three-variable formula defining the class of frames over which modal logic is
undecidable. Second, we consider the satisfiability problem of bimodal logic over
Horn definable classes of frames, and also present a formula leading to undecidability.

text: We consider the problem of computing the set of initial states of a dynamical
system such that there exists a control strategy to ensure that the trajectories
satisfy a temporal logic specification with probability 1 (almost-surely). We
focus on discrete-time, stochastic linear dynamics and specifications given as
formulas of the Generalized Reactivity(1) fragment of Linear Temporal Logic over
linear predicates in the states of the system. We propose a solution based on
iterative abstraction-refinement, and turn-based 2-player probabilistic games.
While the theoretical guarantee of our algorithm after any finite number of iterations
is only a partial solution, we show that if our algorithm terminates, then the
result is the set of satisfying initial states. Moreover, for any (partial) solution
our algorithm synthesizes witness control strategies to ensure almost-sure satisfaction
of the temporal logic specification. We demonstrate our approach on an illustrative
case study.

text: A number of powerful and scalable hybrid systems model checkers have recently
emerged. Although all of them honor roughly the same hybrid systems semantics,
they have drastically different model description languages. This situation (a)
makes it difficult to quickly evaluate a specific hybrid automaton model using
the different tools, (b) obstructs comparisons of reachability approaches, and
(c) impedes the widespread application of research results that perform model
modification and could benefit many of the tools. In this paper, we present Hyst,
a Hybrid Source Transformer. Hyst is a source-to-source translation tool, currently
taking input in the SpaceEx model format, and translating to the formats of HyCreate,
Flow∗, or dReach. Internally, the tool supports generic model-to-model transformation
passes that serve to both ease the translation and potentially improve reachability
results for the supported tools. Although these model transformation passes could
be implemented within each tool, the Hyst approach provides a single place for
model modification, generating modified input sources for the unmodified target
tools. Our evaluation demonstrates Hyst is capable of automatically translating
benchmarks in several classes (including affine and nonlinear hybrid automata)
to the input formats of several tools. Additionally, we illustrate a general model
transformation pass based on pseudo-invariants implemented in Hyst that illustrates
the reachability improvement.

text: Computing an approximation of the reachable states of a hybrid system is a
challenge, mainly because overapproximating the solutions of ODEs with a finite
number of sets does not scale well. Using template polyhedra can greatly reduce
the computational complexity, since it replaces complex operations on sets with
a small number of optimization problems. However, the use of templates may make
the over-approximation too conservative. Spurious transitions, which are falsely
considered reachable, are particularly detrimental to performance and accuracy,
and may exacerbate the state explosion problem. In this paper, we examine how
spurious transitions can be avoided with minimal computational effort. To this
end, detecting spurious transitions is reduced to the well-known problem of showing
that two convex sets are disjoint by finding a hyperplane that separates them.
We generalize this to owpipes by considering hyperplanes that evolve with time
in correspondence to the dynamics of the system. The approach is implemented in
the model checker SpaceEx and demonstrated on examples.

text: 'In mean-payoff games, the objective of the protagonist is to ensure that
the limit average of an infinite sequence of numeric weights is nonnegative. In
energy games, the objective is to ensure that the running sum of weights is always
nonnegative. Multi-mean-payoff and multi-energy games replace individual weights
by tuples, and the limit average (resp., running sum) of each coordinate must
be (resp., remain) nonnegative. We prove finite-memory determinacy of multi-energy
games and show inter-reducibility of multi-mean-payoff and multi-energy games
for finite-memory strategies. We improve the computational complexity for solving
both classes with finite-memory strategies: we prove coNP-completeness improving
the previous known EXPSPACE bound. For memoryless strategies, we show that deciding
the existence of a winning strategy for the protagonist is NP-complete. We present
the first solution of multi-mean-payoff games with infinite-memory strategies:
we show that mean-payoff-sup objectives can be decided in NP∩coNP, whereas mean-payoff-inf
objectives are coNP-complete.'

text: We present a computer-aided programming approach to concurrency. The approach
allows programmers to program assuming a friendly, non-preemptive scheduler, and
our synthesis procedure inserts synchronization to ensure that the final program
works even with a preemptive scheduler. The correctness specification is implicit,
inferred from the non-preemptive behavior. Let us consider sequences of calls
that the program makes to an external interface. The specification requires that
any such sequence produced under a preemptive scheduler should be included in
the set of such sequences produced under a non-preemptive scheduler. The solution
is based on a finitary abstraction, an algorithm for bounded language inclusion
modulo an independence relation, and rules for inserting synchronization. We apply
the approach to device-driver programming, where the driver threads call the software
interface of the device and the API provided by the operating system. Our experiments
demonstrate that our synthesis method is precise and efficient, and, since it
does not require explicit specifications, is more practical than the conventional
approach based on user-provided assertions.

text: 'We consider two-player zero-sum games on graphs. These games can be classified
on the basis of the information of the players and on the mode of interaction
between them. On the basis of information the classification is as follows: (a)
partial-observation (both players have partial view of the game); (b) one-sided
complete-observation (one player has complete observation); and (c) complete-observation
(both players have complete view of the game). On the basis of mode of interaction
we have the following classification: (a) concurrent (both players interact simultaneously);
and (b) turn-based (both players interact in turn). The two sources of randomness
in these games are randomness in transition function and randomness in strategies.
In general, randomized strategies are more powerful than deterministic strategies,
and randomness in transitions gives more general classes of games. In this work
we present a complete characterization for the classes of games where randomness
is not helpful in: (a) the transition function probabilistic transition can be
simulated by deterministic transition); and (b) strategies (pure strategies are
as powerful as randomized strategies). As consequence of our characterization
we obtain new undecidability results for these games. '

text: 'Linearizability of concurrent data structures is usually proved by monolithic
simulation arguments relying on the identification of the so-called linearization
points. Regrettably, such proofs, whether manual or automatic, are often complicated
and scale poorly to advanced non-blocking concurrency patterns, such as helping
and optimistic updates. In response, we propose a more modular way of checking
linearizability of concurrent queue algorithms that does not involve identifying
linearization points. We reduce the task of proving linearizability with respect
to the queue specification to establishing four basic properties, each of which
can be proved independently by simpler arguments. As a demonstration of our approach,
we verify the Herlihy and Wing queue, an algorithm that is challenging to verify
by a simulation proof. '

text: The behaviour of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is typically analysed using
simulation-based statistical testing-like methods. In this paper, we demonstrate
that we can replace this approach by a formal verification-like method that gives
higher assurance and scalability. We focus on Wagner’s weighted GRN model with
varying weights, which is used in evolutionary biology. In the model, weight parameters
represent the gene interaction strength that may change due to genetic mutations.
For a property of interest, we synthesise the constraints over the parameter space
that represent the set of GRNs satisfying the property. We experimentally show
that our parameter synthesis procedure computes the mutational robustness of GRNs
–an important problem of interest in evolutionary biology– more efficiently than
the classical simulation method. We specify the property in linear temporal logics.
We employ symbolic bounded model checking and SMT solving to compute the space
of GRNs that satisfy the property, which amounts to synthesizing a set of linear
constraints on the weights.

abstract:
- lang: eng
text: In the standard framework for worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis of
programs, the main data structure is a single instance of integer linear programming
(ILP) that represents the whole program. The instance of this NP-hard problem
must be solved to find an estimate forWCET, and it must be refined if the estimate
is not tight.We propose a new framework for WCET analysis, based on abstract segment
trees (ASTs) as the main data structure. The ASTs have two advantages. First,
they allow computing WCET by solving a number of independent small ILP instances.
Second, ASTs store more expressive constraints, thus enabling a more efficient
and precise refinement procedure. In order to realize our framework algorithmically,
we develop an algorithm for WCET estimation on ASTs, and we develop an interpolation-based
counterexample-guided refinement scheme for ASTs. Furthermore, we extend our framework
to obtain parametric estimates of WCET. We experimentally evaluate our approach
on a set of examples from WCET benchmark suites and linear-algebra packages. We
show that our analysis, with comparable effort, provides WCET estimates that in
many cases significantly improve those computed by existing tools.

abstract:
- lang: eng
text: In this paper, we present a method for reducing a regular, discrete-time Markov
chain (DTMC) to another DTMC with a given, typically much smaller number of states.
The cost of reduction is defined as the Kullback-Leibler divergence rate between
a projection of the original process through a partition function and a DTMC on
the correspondingly partitioned state space. Finding the reduced model with minimal
cost is computationally expensive, as it requires an exhaustive search among all
state space partitions, and an exact evaluation of the reduction cost for each
candidate partition. Our approach deals with the latter problem by minimizing
an upper bound on the reduction cost instead of minimizing the exact cost. The
proposed upper bound is easy to compute and it is tight if the original chain
is lumpable with respect to the partition. Then, we express the problem in the
form of information bottleneck optimization, and propose using the agglomerative
information bottleneck algorithm for searching a suboptimal partition greedily,
rather than exhaustively. The theory is illustrated with examples and one application
scenario in the context of modeling bio-molecular interactions.

text: Modal transition systems (MTS) is a well-studied specification formalism of
reactive systems supporting a step-wise refinement methodology. Despite its many
advantages, the formalism as well as its currently known extensions are incapable
of expressing some practically needed aspects in the refinement process like exclusive,
conditional and persistent choices. We introduce a new model called parametric
modal transition systems (PMTS) together with a general modal refinement notion
that overcomes many of the limitations. We investigate the computational complexity
of modal and thorough refinement checking on PMTS and its subclasses and provide
a direct encoding of the modal refinement problem into quantified Boolean formulae,
allowing us to employ state-of-the-art QBF solvers for modal refinement checking.
The experiments we report on show that the feasibility of refinement checking
is more influenced by the degree of nondeterminism rather than by the syntactic
restrictions on the types of formulae allowed in the description of the PMTS.

text: 'The traditional synthesis question given a specification asks for the automatic
construction of a system that satisfies the specification, whereas often there
exists a preference order among the different systems that satisfy the given specification.
Under a probabilistic assumption about the possible inputs, such a preference
order is naturally expressed by a weighted automaton, which assigns to each word
a value, such that a system is preferred if it generates a higher expected value.
We solve the following optimal synthesis problem: given an omega-regular specification,
a Markov chain that describes the distribution of inputs, and a weighted automaton
that measures how well a system satisfies the given specification under the input
assumption, synthesize a system that optimizes the measured value. For safety
specifications and quantitative measures that are defined by mean-payoff automata,
the optimal synthesis problem reduces to finding a strategy in a Markov decision
process (MDP) that is optimal for a long-run average reward objective, which can
be achieved in polynomial time. For general omega-regular specifications along
with mean-payoff automata, the solution rests on a new, polynomial-time algorithm
for computing optimal strategies in MDPs with mean-payoff parity objectives. Our
algorithm constructs optimal strategies that consist of two memoryless strategies
and a counter. The counter is in general not bounded. To obtain a finite-state
system, we show how to construct an ε-optimal strategy with a bounded counter,
for all ε > 0. Furthermore, we show how to decide in polynomial time if it
is possible to construct an optimal finite-state system (i.e., a system without
a counter) for a given specification. We have implemented our approach and the
underlying algorithms in a tool that takes qualitative and quantitative specifications
and automatically constructs a system that satisfies the qualitative specification
and optimizes the quantitative specification, if such a system exists. We present
some experimental results showing optimal systems that were automatically generated
in this way.'

text: Continuous-time Markov chains are commonly used in practice for modeling biochemical
reaction networks in which the inherent randomness of themolecular interactions
cannot be ignored. This has motivated recent research effort into methods for
parameter inference and experiment design for such models. The major difficulty
is that such methods usually require one to iteratively solve the chemical master
equation that governs the time evolution of the probability distribution of the
system. This, however, is rarely possible, and even approximation techniques remain
limited to relatively small and simple systems. An alternative explored in this
article is to base methods on only some low-order moments of the entire probability
distribution. We summarize the theory behind such moment-based methods for parameter
inference and experiment design and provide new case studies where we investigate
their performance.

text: We provide a framework for compositional and iterative design and verification
of systems with quantitative information, such as rewards, time or energy. It
is based on disjunctive modal transition systems where we allow actions to bear
various types of quantitative information. Throughout the design process the actions
can be further refined and the information made more precise. We show how to compute
the results of standard operations on the systems, including the quotient (residual),
which has not been previously considered for quantitative non-deterministic systems.
Our quantitative framework has close connections to the modal nu-calculus and
is compositional with respect to general notions of distances between systems
and the standard operations.

text: "We present a method and a tool for generating succinct representations of
sets of concurrent traces. We focus on trace sets that contain all correct or
all incorrect permutations of events from a given trace. We represent trace sets
as HB-Formulas that are Boolean combinations of happens-before constraints between
events. To generate a representation of incorrect interleavings, our method iteratively
explores interleavings that violate the specification and gathers generalizations
of the discovered interleavings into an HB-Formula; its complement yields a representation
of correct interleavings.\r\n\r\nWe claim that our trace set representations can
drive diverse verification, fault localization, repair, and synthesis techniques
for concurrent programs. We demonstrate this by using our tool in three case studies
involving synchronization synthesis, bug summarization, and abstraction refinement
based verification. In each case study, our initial experimental results have
been promising.\r\n\r\nIn the first case study, we present an algorithm for inferring
missing synchronization from an HB-Formula representing correct interleavings
of a given trace. The algorithm applies rules to rewrite specific patterns in
the HB-Formula into locks, barriers, and wait-notify constructs. In the second
case study, we use an HB-Formula representing incorrect interleavings for bug
summarization. While the HB-Formula itself is a concise counterexample summary,
we present additional inference rules to help identify specific concurrency bugs
such as data races, define-use order violations, and two-stage access bugs. In
the final case study, we present a novel predicate learning procedure that uses
HB-Formulas representing abstract counterexamples to accelerate counterexample-guided
abstraction refinement (CEGAR). In each iteration of the CEGAR loop, the procedure
refines the abstraction to eliminate multiple spurious abstract counterexamples
drawn from the HB-Formula."

text: "Recently there has been a significant effort to handle quantitative properties
in formal verification and synthesis. While weighted automata over finite and
infinite words provide a natural and flexible framework to express quantitative
properties, perhaps surprisingly, some basic system properties such as average
response time cannot be expressed using weighted automata, nor in any other know
decidable formalism. In this work, we introduce nested weighted automata as a
natural extension of weighted automata which makes it possible to express important
quantitative properties such as average response time.\r\nIn nested weighted automata,
a master automaton spins off and collects results from weighted slave automata,
each of which computes a quantity along a finite portion of an infinite word.
Nested weighted automata can be viewed as the quantitative analogue of monitor
automata, which are used in run-time verification. We establish an almost complete
decidability picture for the basic decision problems about nested weighted automata,
and illustrate their applicability in several domains. In particular, nested weighted
automata can be used to decide average response time properties."
