text: We provide a procedure for detecting the sub-segments of an incrementally
observed Boolean signal ω that match a given temporal pattern ϕ. As a pattern
specification language, we use timed regular expressions, a formalism well-suited
for expressing properties of concurrent asynchronous behaviors embedded in metric
time. We construct a timed automaton accepting the timed language denoted by ϕ
and modify it slightly for the purpose of matching. We then apply zone-based reachability
computation to this automaton while it reads ω, and retrieve all the matching
segments from the results. Since the procedure is automaton based, it can be applied
to patterns specified by other formalisms such as timed temporal logics reducible
to timed automata or directly encoded as timed automata. The procedure has been
implemented and its performance on synthetic examples is demonstrated.

text: 'Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) are a popular class of models suitable for
solving control decision problems in probabilistic reactive systems. We consider
parametric MDPs (pMDPs) that include parameters in some of the transition probabilities
to account for stochastic uncertainties of the environment such as noise or input
disturbances. We study pMDPs with reachability objectives where the parameter
values are unknown and impossible to measure directly during execution, but there
is a probability distribution known over the parameter values. We study for the
first time computing parameter-independent strategies that are expectation optimal,
i.e., optimize the expected reachability probability under the probability distribution
over the parameters. We present an encoding of our problem to partially observable
MDPs (POMDPs), i.e., a reduction of our problem to computing optimal strategies
in POMDPs. We evaluate our method experimentally on several benchmarks: a motivating
(repeated) learner model; a series of benchmarks of varying configurations of
a robot moving on a grid; and a consensus protocol.'

text: We solve the offline monitoring problem for timed propositional temporal logic
(TPTL), interpreted over dense-time Boolean signals. The variant of TPTL we consider
extends linear temporal logic (LTL) with clock variables and reset quantifiers,
providing a mechanism to specify real-time constraints. We first describe a general
monitoring algorithm based on an exhaustive computation of the set of satisfying
clock assignments as a finite union of zones. We then propose a specialized monitoring
algorithm for the one-variable case using a partition of the time domain based
on the notion of region equivalence, whose complexity is linear in the length
of the signal, thereby generalizing a known result regarding the monitoring of
metric temporal logic (MTL). The region and zone representations of time constraints
are known from timed automata verification and can also be used in the discrete-time
case. Our prototype implementation appears to outperform previous discrete-time
implementations of TPTL monitoring,

text: Responsiveness—the requirement that every request to a system be eventually
handled—is one of the fundamental liveness properties of a reactive system. Average
response time is a quantitative measure for the responsiveness requirement used
commonly in performance evaluation. We show how average response time can be computed
on state-transition graphs, on Markov chains, and on game graphs. In all three
cases, we give polynomial-time algorithms.

text: We describe a new algorithm for the parametric identification problem for
signal temporal logic (STL), stated as follows. Given a densetime real-valued
signal w and a parameterized temporal logic formula φ, compute the subset of the
parameter space that renders the formula satisfied by the signal. Unlike previous
solutions, which were based on search in the parameter space or quantifier elimination,
our procedure works recursively on φ and computes the evolution over time of the
set of valid parameter assignments. This procedure is similar to that of monitoring
or computing the robustness of φ relative to w. Our implementation and experiments
demonstrate that this approach can work well in practice.

text: 'Fault-localization is considered to be a very tedious and time-consuming
activity in the design of complex Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). This laborious
task essentially requires expert knowledge of the system in order to discover
the cause of the fault. In this context, we propose a new procedure that AIDS
designers in debugging Simulink/Stateflow hybrid system models, guided by Signal
Temporal Logic (STL) specifications. The proposed method relies on three main
ingredients: (1) a monitoring and a trace diagnostics procedure that checks whether
a tested behavior satisfies or violates an STL specification, localizes time segments
and interfaces variables contributing to the property violations; (2) a slicing
procedure that maps these observable behavior segments to the internal states
and transitions of the Simulink model; and (3) a spectrum-based fault-localization
method that combines the previous analysis from multiple tests to identify the
internal states and/or transitions that are the most likely to explain the fault.
We demonstrate the applicability of our approach on two Simulink models from the
automotive and the avionics domain.'

text: Partially-observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) with discounted-sum
payoff are a standard framework to model a wide range of problems related to decision
making under uncertainty. Traditionally, the goal has been to obtain policies
that optimize the expectation of the discounted-sum payoff. A key drawback of
the expectation measure is that even low probability events with extreme payoff
can significantly affect the expectation, and thus the obtained policies are not
necessarily risk-averse. An alternate approach is to optimize the probability
that the payoff is above a certain threshold, which allows obtaining risk-averse
policies, but ignores optimization of the expectation. We consider the expectation
optimization with probabilistic guarantee (EOPG) problem, where the goal is to
optimize the expectation ensuring that the payoff is above a given threshold with
at least a specified probability. We present several results on the EOPG problem,
including the first algorithm to solve it.

text: 'Recently, contract-based design has been proposed as an “orthogonal” approach
that complements system design methodologies proposed so far to cope with the
complexity of system design. Contract-based design provides a rigorous scaffolding
for verification, analysis, abstraction/refinement, and even synthesis. A number
of results have been obtained in this domain but a unified treatment of the topic
that can help put contract-based design in perspective was missing. This monograph
intends to provide such a treatment where contracts are precisely defined and
characterized so that they can be used in design methodologies with no ambiguity.
In particular, this monograph identifies the essence of complex system design
using contracts through a mathematical “meta-theory”, where all the properties
of the methodology are derived from a very abstract and generic notion of contract.
We show that the meta-theory provides deep and illuminating links with existing
contract and interface theories, as well as guidelines for designing new theories.
Our study encompasses contracts for both software and systems, with emphasis on
the latter. We illustrate the use of contracts with two examples: requirement
engineering for a parking garage management, and the development of contracts
for timing and scheduling in the context of the Autosar methodology in use in
the automotive sector.'

text: In two-player games on graphs, the players move a token through a graph to
produce an infinite path, which determines the winner or payoff of the game. Such
games are central in formal verification since they model the interaction between
a non-terminating system and its environment. We study bidding games in which
the players bid for the right to move the token. Two bidding rules have been defined.
In Richman bidding, in each round, the players simultaneously submit bids, and
the higher bidder moves the token and pays the other player. Poorman bidding is
similar except that the winner of the bidding pays the “bank” rather than the
other player. While poorman reachability games have been studied before, we present,
for the first time, results on infinite-duration poorman games. A central quantity
in these games is the ratio between the two players’ initial budgets. The questions
we study concern a necessary and sufficient ratio with which a player can achieve
a goal. For reachability objectives, such threshold ratios are known to exist
for both bidding rules. We show that the properties of poorman reachability games
extend to complex qualitative objectives such as parity, similarly to the Richman
case. Our most interesting results concern quantitative poorman games, namely
poorman mean-payoff games, where we construct optimal strategies depending on
the initial ratio, by showing a connection with random-turn based games. The connection
in itself is interesting, because it does not hold for reachability poorman games.
We also solve the complexity problems that arise in poorman bidding games.

text: Formalizing properties of systems with continuous dynamics is a challenging
task. In this paper, we propose a formal framework for specifying and monitoring
rich temporal properties of real-valued signals. We introduce signal first-order
logic (SFO) as a specification language that combines first-order logic with linear-real
arithmetic and unary function symbols interpreted as piecewise-linear signals.
We first show that while the satisfiability problem for SFO is undecidable, its
membership and monitoring problems are decidable. We develop an offline monitoring
procedure for SFO that has polynomial complexity in the size of the input trace
and the specification, for a fixed number of quantifiers and function symbols.
We show that the algorithm has computation time linear in the size of the input
trace for the important fragment of bounded-response specifications interpreted
over input traces with finite variability. We can use our results to extend signal
temporal logic with first-order quantifiers over time and value parameters, while
preserving its efficient monitoring. We finally demonstrate the practical appeal
of our logic through a case study in the micro-electronics domain.

text: Model checking is a computer-assisted method for the analysis of dynamical
systems that can be modeled by state-transition systems. Drawing from research
traditions in mathematical logic, programming languages, hardware design, and
theoretical computer science, model checking is now widely used for the verification
of hardware and software in industry. This chapter is an introduction and short
survey of model checking. The chapter aims to motivate and link the individual
chapters of the handbook, and to provide context for readers who are not familiar
with model checking.

text: Network games are widely used as a model for selfish resource-allocation problems.
In the classicalmodel, each player selects a path connecting her source and target
vertices. The cost of traversingan edge depends on theload; namely, number of
players that traverse it. Thus, it abstracts the factthat different users may
use a resource at different times and for different durations, which playsan important
role in determining the costs of the users in reality. For example, when transmittingpackets
in a communication network, routing traffic in a road network, or processing a
task in aproduction system, actual sharing and congestion of resources crucially
depends on time.In [13], we introducedtimed network games, which add a time component
to network games.Each vertexvin the network is associated with a cost function,
mapping the load onvto theprice that a player pays for staying invfor one time
unit with this load. Each edge in thenetwork is guarded by the time intervals
in which it can be traversed, which forces the players tospend time in the vertices.
In this work we significantly extend the way time can be referred toin timed network
games. In the model we study, the network is equipped withclocks, and, as intimed
automata, edges are guarded by constraints on the values of the clocks, and their
traversalmay involve a reset of some clocks. We argue that the stronger model
captures many realisticnetworks. The addition of clocks breaks the techniques
we developed in [13] and we developnew techniques in order to show that positive
results on classic network games carry over to thestronger timed setting.

text: 'Network games (NGs) are played on directed graphs and are extensively used
in network design and analysis. Search problems for NGs include finding special
strategy profiles such as a Nash equilibrium and a globally-optimal solution.
The networks modeled by NGs may be huge. In formal verification, abstraction has
proven to be an extremely effective technique for reasoning about systems with
big and even infinite state spaces. We describe an abstraction-refinement methodology
for reasoning about NGs. Our methodology is based on an abstraction function that
maps the state space of an NG to a much smaller state space. We search for a global
optimum and a Nash equilibrium by reasoning on an under- and an over-approximation
defined on top of this smaller state space. When the approximations are too coarse
to find such profiles, we refine the abstraction function. We extend the abstraction-refinement
methodology to labeled networks, where the objectives of the players are regular
languages. Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the methodology. '

text: Synthesis is the automated construction of a system from its specification.
In real life, hardware and software systems are rarely constructed from scratch.
Rather, a system is typically constructed from a library of components. Lustig
and Vardi formalized this intuition and studied LTL synthesis from component libraries.
In real life, designers seek optimal systems. In this paper we add optimality
considerations to the setting. We distinguish between quality considerations (for
example, size - the smaller a system is, the better it is), and pricing (for example,
the payment to the company who manufactured the component). We study the problem
of designing systems with minimal quality-cost and price. A key point is that
while the quality cost is individual - the choices of a designer are independent
of choices made by other designers that use the same library, pricing gives rise
to a resource-allocation game - designers that use the same component share its
price, with the share being proportional to the number of uses (a component can
be used several times in a design). We study both closed and open settings, and
in both we solve the problem of finding an optimal design. In a setting with multiple
designers, we also study the game-theoretic problems of the induced resource-allocation
game.

text: The task of a monitor is to watch, at run-time, the execution of a reactive
system, and signal the occurrence of a safety violation in the observed sequence
of events. While finite-state monitors have been studied extensively, in practice,
monitoring software also makes use of unbounded memory. We define a model of automata
equipped with integer-valued registers which can execute only a bounded number
of instructions between consecutive events, and thus can form the theoretical
basis for the study of infinite-state monitors. We classify these register monitors
according to the number k of available registers, and the type of register instructions.
In stark contrast to the theory of computability for register machines, we prove
that for every k 1, monitors with k + 1 counters (with instruction set 〈+1, =〉)
are strictly more expressive than monitors with k counters. We also show that
adder monitors (with instruction set 〈1, +, =〉) are strictly more expressive than
counter monitors, but are complete for monitoring all computable safety -languages
for k = 6. Real-time monitors are further required to signal the occurrence of
a safety violation as soon as it occurs. The expressiveness hierarchy for counter
monitors carries over to real-time monitors. We then show that 2 adders cannot
simulate 3 counters in real-time. Finally, we show that real-time adder monitors
with inequalities are as expressive as real-time Turing machines.

text: 'Imprecision in timing can sometimes be beneficial: Metric interval temporal
logic (MITL), disabling the expression of punctuality constraints, was shown to
translate to timed automata, yielding an elementary decision procedure. We show
how this principle extends to other forms of dense-time specification using regular
expressions. By providing a clean, automaton-based formal framework for non-punctual
languages, we are able to recover and extend several results in timed systems.
Metric interval regular expressions (MIRE) are introduced, providing regular expressions
with non-singular duration constraints. We obtain that MIRE are expressively complete
relative to a class of one-clock timed automata, which can be determinized using
additional clocks. Metric interval dynamic logic (MIDL) is then defined using
MIRE as temporal modalities. We show that MIDL generalizes known extensions of
MITL, while translating to timed automata at comparable cost.'

text: We present layered concurrent programs, a compact and expressive notation
for specifying refinement proofs of concurrent programs. A layered concurrent
program specifies a sequence of connected concurrent programs, from most concrete
to most abstract, such that common parts of different programs are written exactly
once. These programs are expressed in the ordinary syntax of imperative concurrent
programs using gated atomic actions, sequencing, choice, and (recursive) procedure
calls. Each concurrent program is automatically extracted from the layered program.
We reduce refinement to the safety of a sequence of concurrent checker programs,
one each to justify the connection between every two consecutive concurrent programs.
These checker programs are also automatically extracted from the layered program.
Layered concurrent programs have been implemented in the CIVL verifier which has
been successfully used for the verification of several complex concurrent programs.

text: Synchronous programs are easy to specify because the side effects of an operation
are finished by the time the invocation of the operation returns to the caller.
Asynchronous programs, on the other hand, are difficult to specify because there
are side effects due to pending computation scheduled as a result of the invocation
of an operation. They are also difficult to verify because of the large number
of possible interleavings of concurrent computation threads. We present synchronization,
a new proof rule that simplifies the verification of asynchronous programs by
introducing the fiction, for proof purposes, that asynchronous operations complete
synchronously. Synchronization summarizes an asynchronous computation as immediate
atomic effect. Modular verification is enabled via pending asynchronous calls
in atomic summaries, and a complementary proof rule that eliminates pending asynchronous
calls when components and their specifications are composed. We evaluate synchronization
in the context of a multi-layer refinement verification methodology on a collection
of benchmark programs.

text: Reachability analysis is difficult for hybrid automata with affine differential
equations, because the reach set needs to be approximated. Promising abstraction
techniques usually employ interval methods or template polyhedra. Interval methods
account for dense time and guarantee soundness, and there are interval-based tools
that overapproximate affine flowpipes. But interval methods impose bounded and
rigid shapes, which make refinement expensive and fixpoint detection difficult.
Template polyhedra, on the other hand, can be adapted flexibly and can be unbounded,
but sound template refinement for unbounded reachability analysis has been implemented
only for systems with piecewise constant dynamics. We capitalize on the advantages
of both techniques, combining interval arithmetic and template polyhedra, using
the former to abstract time and the latter to abstract space. During a CEGAR loop,
whenever a spurious error trajectory is found, we compute additional space constraints
and split time intervals, and use these space-time interpolants to eliminate the
counterexample. Space-time interpolation offers a lazy, flexible framework for
increasing precision while guaranteeing soundness, both for error avoidance and
fixpoint detection. To the best of out knowledge, this is the first abstraction
refinement scheme for the reachability analysis over unbounded and dense time
of affine hybrid systems, which is both sound and automatic. We demonstrate the
effectiveness of our algorithm with several benchmark examples, which cannot be
handled by other tools.

text: We address the problem of analyzing the reachable set of a polynomial nonlinear
continuous system by over-approximating the flowpipe of its dynamics. The common
approach to tackle this problem is to perform a numerical integration over a given
time horizon based on Taylor expansion and interval arithmetic. However, this
method results to be very conservative when there is a large difference in speed
between trajectories as time progresses. In this paper, we propose to use combinations
of barrier functions, which we call piecewise barrier tube (PBT), to over-approximate
flowpipe. The basic idea of PBT is that for each segment of a flowpipe, a coarse
box which is big enough to contain the segment is constructed using sampled simulation
and then in the box we compute by linear programming a set of barrier functions
(called barrier tube or BT for short) which work together to form a tube surrounding
the flowpipe. The benefit of using PBT is that (1) BT is independent of time and
hence can avoid being stretched and deformed by time; and (2) a small number of
BTs can form a tight over-approximation for the flowpipe, which means that the
computation required to decide whether the BTs intersect the unsafe set can be
reduced significantly. We implemented a prototype called PBTS in C++. Experiments
on some benchmark systems show that our approach is effective.
