  text: 'Many stochastic models of biochemical reaction networks contain some chemical
    species for which the number of molecules that are present in the system can only
    be finite (for instance due to conservation laws), but also other species that
    can be present in arbitrarily large amounts. The prime example of such networks
    are models of gene expression, which typically contain a small and finite number
    of possible states for the promoter but an infinite number of possible states
    for the amount of mRNA and protein. One of the main approaches to analyze such
    models is through the use of equations for the time evolution of moments of the
    chemical species. Recently, a new approach based on conditional moments of the
    species with infinite state space given all the different possible states of the
    finite species has been proposed. It was argued that this approach allows one
    to capture more details about the full underlying probability distribution with
    a smaller number of equations. Here, I show that the result that less moments
    provide more information can only stem from an unnecessarily complicated description
    of the system in the classical formulation. The foundation of this argument will
    be the derivation of moment equations that describe the complete probability distribution
    over the finite state space but only low-order moments over the infinite state
    space. I will show that the number of equations that is needed is always less
    than what was previously claimed and always less than the number of conditional
    moment equations up to the same order. To support these arguments, a symbolic
    algorithm is provided that can be used to derive minimal systems of unconditional
    moment equations for models with partially finite state space. '

  text: We present XSpeed a parallel state-space exploration algorithm for continuous
    systems with linear dynamics and nondeterministic inputs. The motivation of having
    parallel algorithms is to exploit the computational power of multi-core processors
    to speed-up performance. The parallelization is achieved on two fronts. First,
    we propose a parallel implementation of the support function algorithm by sampling
    functions in parallel. Second, we propose a parallel state-space exploration by
    slicing the time horizon and computing the reachable states in the time slices
    in parallel. The second method can be however applied only to a class of linear
    systems with invertible dynamics and fixed input. A GP-GPU implementation is also
    presented following a lazy evaluation strategy on support functions. The parallel
    algorithms are implemented in the tool XSpeed. We evaluated the performance on
    two benchmarks including an 28 dimension Helicopter model. Comparison with the
    sequential counterpart shows a maximum speed-up of almost 7× on a 6 core, 12 thread
    Intel Xeon CPU E5-2420 processor. Our GP-GPU implementation shows a maximum speed-up
    of 12× over the sequential implementation and 53× over SpaceEx (LGG scenario),
    the state of the art tool for reachability analysis of linear hybrid systems.
    Experiments illustrate that our parallel algorithm with time slicing not only
    speeds-up performance but also improves precision.

  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 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: "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: Multiaffine hybrid automata (MHA) represent a powerful formalism to model
    complex dynamical systems. This formalism is particularly suited for the representation
    of biological systems which often exhibit highly non-linear behavior. In this
    paper, we consider the problem of parameter identification for MHA. We present
    an abstraction of MHA based on linear hybrid automata, which can be analyzed by
    the SpaceEx model checker. This abstraction enables a precise handling of time-dependent
    properties. We demonstrate the potential of our approach on a model of a genetic
    regulatory network and a myocyte model.

  text: 'In this paper, we present the first steps toward a runtime verification framework
    for monitoring hybrid and cyber-physical systems (CPS) development tools based
    on randomized differential testing. The development tools include hybrid systems
    reachability analysis tools, model-based development environments like Simulink/Stateflow
    (SLSF), etc. First, hybrid automaton models are randomly generated. Next, these
    hybrid automaton models are translated to a number of different tools (currently,
    SpaceEx, dReach, Flow*, HyCreate, and the MathWorks’ Simulink/Stateflow) using
    the HyST source transformation and translation tool. Then, the hybrid automaton
    models are executed in the different tools and their outputs are parsed. The final
    step is the differential comparison: the outputs of the different tools are compared.
    If the results do not agree (in the sense that an analysis or verification result
    from one tool does not match that of another tool, ignoring timeouts, etc.), a
    candidate bug is flagged and the model is saved for future analysis by the user.
    The process then repeats and the monitoring continues until the user terminates
    the process. We present preliminary results that have been useful in identifying
    a few bugs in the analysis methods of different development tools, and in an earlier
    version of HyST.'

  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: 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. In 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.

  text: 'We consider Markov decision processes (MDPs) with multiple limit-average
    (or mean-payoff) objectives. There exist two different views: (i) ~the expectation
    semantics, where the goal is to optimize the expected mean-payoff objective, and
    (ii) ~the satisfaction semantics, where the goal is to maximize the probability
    of runs such that the mean-payoff value stays above a given vector. We consider
    optimization with respect to both objectives at once, thus unifying the existing
    semantics. Precisely, the goal is to optimize the expectation while ensuring the
    satisfaction constraint. Our problem captures the notion of optimization with
    respect to strategies that are risk-averse (i.e., Ensure certain probabilistic
    guarantee). Our main results are as follows: First, we present algorithms for
    the decision problems, which are always polynomial in the size of the MDP. We
    also show that an approximation of the Pareto curve can be computed in time polynomial
    in the size of the MDP, and the approximation factor, but exponential in the number
    of dimensions. Second, we present a complete characterization of the strategy
    complexity (in terms of memory bounds and randomization) required to solve our
    problem. '

  text: Continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) models have become a central tool for
    understanding the dynamics of complex reaction networks and the importance of
    stochasticity in the underlying biochemical processes. When such models are employed
    to answer questions in applications, in order to ensure that the model provides
    a sufficiently accurate representation of the real system, it is of vital importance
    that the model parameters are inferred from real measured data. This, however,
    is often a formidable task and all of the existing methods fail in one case or
    the other, usually because the underlying CTMC model is high-dimensional and computationally
    difficult to analyze. The parameter inference methods that tend to scale best
    in the dimension of the CTMC are based on so-called moment closure approximations.
    However, there exists a large number of different moment closure approximations
    and it is typically hard to say a priori which of the approximations is the most
    suitable for the inference procedure. Here, we propose a moment-based parameter
    inference method that automatically chooses the most appropriate moment closure
    method. Accordingly, contrary to existing methods, the user is not required to
    be experienced in moment closure techniques. In addition to that, our method adaptively
    changes the approximation during the parameter inference to ensure that always
    the best approximation is used, even in cases where different approximations are
    best in different regions of the parameter space.

  text: 'The target discounted-sum problem is the following: Given a rational discount
    factor 0 &lt; λ &lt; 1 and three rational values a, b, and t, does there exist
    a finite or an infinite sequence w ε(a, b)∗ or w ε(a, b)w, such that Σ|w| i=0
    w(i)λi equals t? The problem turns out to relate to many fields of mathematics
    and computer science, and its decidability question is surprisingly hard to solve.
    We solve the finite version of the problem, and show the hardness of the infinite
    version, linking it to various areas and open problems in mathematics and computer
    science: β-expansions, discounted-sum automata, piecewise affine maps, and generalizations
    of the Cantor set. We provide some partial results to the infinite version, among
    which are solutions to its restriction to eventually-periodic sequences and to
    the cases that λ λ 1/2 or λ = 1/n, for every n ε N. We use our results for solving
    some open problems on discounted-sum automata, among which are the exact-value
    problem for nondeterministic automata over finite words and the universality and
    inclusion problems for functional automata.'

  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. '
