text: 'In this paper, we propose an approach to automatically compute invariant
clusters for nonlinear semialgebraic hybrid systems. An invariant cluster for
an ordinary differential equation (ODE) is a multivariate polynomial invariant
g(u→, x→) = 0, parametric in u→, which can yield an infinite number of concrete
invariants by assigning different values to u→ so that every trajectory of the
system can be overapproximated precisely by the intersection of a group of concrete
invariants. For semialgebraic systems, which involve ODEs with multivariate polynomial
right-hand sides, given a template multivariate polynomial g(u→, x→), an invariant
cluster can be obtained by first computing the remainder of the Lie derivative
of g(u→, x→) divided by g(u→, x→) and then solving the system of polynomial equations
obtained from the coefficients of the remainder. Based on invariant clusters and
sum-of-squares (SOS) programming, we present a new method for the safety verification
of hybrid systems. Experiments on nonlinear benchmark systems from biology and
control theory show that our approach is efficient. '

text: Nested weighted automata (NWA) present a robust and convenient automata-theoretic
formalism for quantitative specifications. Previous works have considered NWA
that processed input words only in the forward direction. It is natural to allow
the automata to process input words backwards as well, for example, to measure
the maximal or average time between a response and the preceding request. We therefore
introduce and study bidirectional NWA that can process input words in both directions.
First, we show that bidirectional NWA can express interesting quantitative properties
that are not expressible by forward-only NWA. Second, for the fundamental decision
problems of emptiness and universality, we establish decidability and complexity
results for the new framework which match the best-known results for the special
case of forward-only NWA. Thus, for NWA, the increased expressiveness of bidirectionality
is achieved at no additional computational complexity. This is in stark contrast
to the unweighted case, where bidirectional finite automata are no more expressive
but exponentially more succinct than their forward-only counterparts.

text: 'Network games are widely used as a model for selfish resource-allocation
problems. In the classical model, each player selects a path connecting her source
and target vertex. The cost of traversing an edge depends on the number of players
that traverse it. Thus, it abstracts the fact that different users may use a resource
at different times and for different durations, which plays an important role
in defining the costs of the users in reality. For example, when transmitting
packets in a communication network, routing traffic in a road network, or processing
a task in a production system, the traversal of the network involves an inherent
delay, and so sharing and congestion of resources crucially depends on time. We
study timed network games , which add a time component to network games. Each
vertex v in the network is associated with a cost function, mapping the load on
v to the price that a player pays for staying in v for one time unit with this
load. In addition, each edge has a guard, describing time intervals in which the
edge can be traversed, forcing the players to spend time on vertices. Unlike earlier
work that add a time component to network games, the time in our model is continuous
and cannot be discretized. In particular, players have uncountably many strategies,
and a game may have uncountably many pure Nash equilibria. We study properties
of timed network games with cost-sharing or congestion cost functions: their stability,
equilibrium inefficiency, and complexity. In particular, we show that the answer
to the question whether we can restrict attention to boundary strategies, namely
ones in which edges are traversed only at the boundaries of guards, is mixed. '

text: 'Recently there has been a proliferation of automated program repair (APR)
techniques, targeting various programming languages. Such techniques can be generally
classified into two families: syntactic- and semantics-based. Semantics-based
APR, on which we focus, typically uses symbolic execution to infer semantic constraints
and then program synthesis to construct repairs conforming to them. While syntactic-based
APR techniques have been shown successful on bugs in real-world programs written
in both C and Java, semantics-based APR techniques mostly target C programs. This
leaves empirical comparisons of the APR families not fully explored, and developers
without a Java-based semantics APR technique. We present JFix, a semantics-based
APR framework that targets Java, and an associated Eclipse plugin. JFix is implemented
atop Symbolic PathFinder, a well-known symbolic execution engine for Java programs.
It extends one particular APR technique (Angelix), and is designed to be sufficiently
generic to support a variety of such techniques. We demonstrate that semantics-based
APR can indeed efficiently and effectively repair a variety of classes of bugs
in large real-world Java programs. This supports our claim that the framework
can both support developers seeking semantics-based repair of bugs in Java programs,
as well as enable larger scale empirical studies comparing syntactic- and semantics-based
APR targeting Java. The demonstration of our tool is available via the project
website at: https://xuanbachle.github.io/semanticsrepair/ '

text: "Two-player games on graphs are widely studied in formal methods as they model
the interaction between a system and its environment. The game is played by moving
a token throughout a graph to produce an infinite path. There are several common
modes to determine how the players move the token through the graph; e.g., in
turn-based games the players alternate turns in moving the token. We study the
bidding mode of moving the token, which, to the best of our knowledge, has never
been studied in infinite-duration games. Both players have separate budgets, which
sum up to $1$. In each turn, a bidding takes place. Both players submit bids simultaneously,
and a bid is legal if it does not exceed the available budget. The winner of the
bidding pays his bid to the other player and moves the token. For reachability
objectives, repeated bidding games have been studied and are called Richman games.
There, a central question is the existence and computation of threshold budgets;
namely, a value t\\in [0,1] such that if\\PO's budget exceeds $t$, he can win
the game, and if\\PT's budget exceeds 1-t, he can win the game. We focus on parity
games and mean-payoff games. We show the existence of threshold budgets in these
games, and reduce the problem of finding them to Richman games. We also determine
the strategy-complexity of an optimal strategy. Our most interesting result shows
that memoryless strategies suffice for mean-payoff bidding games. \r\n"

text: This dissertation concerns the automatic verification of probabilistic systems
and programs with arrays by statistical and logical methods. Although statistical
and logical methods are different in nature, we show that they can be successfully
combined for system analysis. In the first part of the dissertation we present
a new statistical algorithm for the verification of probabilistic systems with
respect to unbounded properties, including linear temporal logic. Our algorithm
often performs faster than the previous approaches, and at the same time requires
less information about the system. In addition, our method can be generalized
to unbounded quantitative properties such as mean-payoff bounds. In the second
part, we introduce two techniques for comparing probabilistic systems. Probabilistic
systems are typically compared using the notion of equivalence, which requires
the systems to have the equal probability of all behaviors. However, this notion
is often too strict, since probabilities are typically only empirically estimated,
and any imprecision may break the relation between processes. On the one hand,
we propose to replace the Boolean notion of equivalence by a quantitative distance
of similarity. For this purpose, we introduce a statistical framework for estimating
distances between Markov chains based on their simulation runs, and we investigate
which distances can be approximated in our framework. On the other hand, we propose
to compare systems with respect to a new qualitative logic, which expresses that
behaviors occur with probability one or a positive probability. This qualitative
analysis is robust with respect to modeling errors and applicable to many domains.
In the last part, we present a new quantifier-free logic for integer arrays, which
allows us to express counting. Counting properties are prevalent in array-manipulating
programs, however they cannot be expressed in the quantified fragments of the
theory of arrays. We present a decision procedure for our logic, and provide several
complexity results.

text: Despite researchers’ efforts in the last couple of decades, reachability analysis
is still a challenging problem even for linear hybrid systems. Among the existing
approaches, the most practical ones are mainly based on bounded-time reachable
set over-approximations. For the purpose of unbounded-time analysis, one important
strategy is to abstract the original system and find an invariant for the abstraction.
In this paper, we propose an approach to constructing a new kind of abstraction
called conic abstraction for affine hybrid systems, and to computing reachable
sets based on this abstraction. The essential feature of a conic abstraction is
that it partitions the state space of a system into a set of convex polyhedral
cones which is derived from a uniform conic partition of the derivative space.
Such a set of polyhedral cones is able to cut all trajectories of the system into
almost straight segments so that every segment of a reach pipe in a polyhedral
cone tends to be straight as well, and hence can be over-approximated tightly
by polyhedra using similar techniques as HyTech or PHAVer. In particular, for
diagonalizable affine systems, our approach can guarantee to find an invariant
for unbounded reachable sets, which is beyond the capability of bounded-time reachability
analysis tools. We implemented the approach in a tool and experiments on benchmarks
show that our approach is more powerful than SpaceEx and PHAVer in dealing with
diagonalizable systems.

text: Template polyhedra generalize intervals and octagons to polyhedra whose facets
are orthogonal to a given set of arbitrary directions. They have been employed
in the abstract interpretation of programs and, with particular success, in the
reachability analysis of hybrid automata. While previously, the choice of directions
has been left to the user or a heuristic, we present a method for the automatic
discovery of directions that generalize and eliminate spurious counterexamples.
We show that for the class of convex hybrid automata, i.e., hybrid automata with
(possibly nonlinear) convex constraints on derivatives, such directions always
exist and can be found using convex optimization. We embed our method inside a
CEGAR loop, thus enabling the time-unbounded reachability analysis of an important
and richer class of hybrid automata than was previously possible. We evaluate
our method on several benchmarks, demonstrating also its superior efficiency for
the special case of linear hybrid automata.

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 all satisfying initial states. Moreover, for any (partial)
solution our algorithm synthesizes witness control strategies to ensure almost-sure
satisfaction of the temporal logic specification. While the proposed algorithm
guarantees progress and soundness in every iteration, it is computationally demanding.
We offer an alternative, more efficient solution for the reachability properties
that decomposes the problem into a series of smaller problems of the same type.
All algorithms are demonstrated on an illustrative case study.

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 sequences produced under a non-preemptive scheduler. We guarantee that
our synthesis does not introduce deadlocks and that the synchronization inserted
is optimal w.r.t. a given objective function. The solution is based on a finitary
abstraction, an algorithm for bounded language inclusion modulo an independence
relation, and generation of a set of global constraints over synchronization placements.
Each model of the global constraints set corresponds to a correctness-ensuring
synchronization placement. The placement that is optimal w.r.t. the given objective
function is chosen as the synchronization solution. 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. The implicit specification helped
us find one concurrency bug previously missed when model-checking using an explicit,
user-provided specification. We implemented objective functions for coarse-grained
and fine-grained locking and observed that different synchronization placements
are produced for our experiments, favoring a minimal number of synchronization
operations or maximum concurrency, respectively.

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 logic.
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.

text: 'We define the . model-measuring problem: given a model . M and specification
. ϕ, what is the maximal distance . ρ such that all models . M'' within distance
. ρ from . M satisfy (or violate) . ϕ. The model-measuring problem presupposes
a distance function on models. We concentrate on . automatic distance functions,
which are defined by weighted automata. The model-measuring problem subsumes several
generalizations of the classical model-checking problem, in particular, quantitative
model-checking problems that measure the degree of satisfaction of a specification;
robustness problems that measure how much a model can be perturbed without violating
the specification; and parameter synthesis for hybrid systems. We show that for
automatic distance functions, and (a) . ω-regular linear-time, (b) . ω-regular
branching-time, and (c) hybrid specifications, the model-measuring problem can
be solved.We use automata-theoretic model-checking methods for model measuring,
replacing the emptiness question for word, tree, and hybrid automata by the .
optimal-value question for the weighted versions of these automata. For automata
over words and trees, we consider weighted automata that accumulate weights by
maximizing, summing, discounting, and limit averaging. For hybrid automata, we
consider monotonic (parametric) hybrid automata, a hybrid counterpart of (discrete)
weighted automata.We give several examples of using the model-measuring problem
to compute various notions of robustness and quantitative satisfaction for temporal
specifications. Further, we propose the modeling framework for model measuring
to ease the specification and reduce the likelihood of errors in modeling.Finally,
we present a variant of the model-measuring problem, called the . model-repair
problem. The model-repair problem applies to models that do not satisfy the specification;
it can be used to derive restrictions, under which the model satisfies the specification,
i.e., to repair the model.'

text: "Time-triggered switched networks are a deterministic communication infrastructure
used by real-time distributed embedded systems. Due to the criticality of the
applications running over them, developers need to ensure that end-to-end communication
is dependable and predictable. Traditional approaches assume static networks that
are not flexible to changes caused by reconfigurations or, more importantly, faults,
which are dealt with in the application using redundancy. We adopt the concept
of handling faults in the switches from non-real-time networks while maintaining
the required predictability. \r\n\r\nWe study a class of forwarding schemes that
can handle various types of failures. We consider probabilistic failures. We study
a class of forwarding schemes that can handle various types of failures. We consider
probabilistic failures. For a given network with a forwarding scheme and a constant
ℓ, we compute the {\\em score} of the scheme, namely the probability (induced
by faults) that at least ℓ messages arrive on time. We reduce the scoring problem
to a reachability problem on a Markov chain with a "product-like" structure.
Its special structure allows us to reason about it symbolically, and reduce the
scoring problem to #SAT. Our solution is generic and can be adapted to different
networks and other contexts. Also, we show the computational complexity of the
scoring problem is #P-complete, and we study methods to estimate the score. We
evaluate the effectiveness of our techniques with an implementation. "

text: "Simulation is an attractive alternative to language inclusion for automata
as it is an under-approximation of language inclusion, but usually has much lower
complexity. Simulation has also been extended in two orthogonal directions, namely,
(1) fair simulation, for simulation over specified set of infinite runs; and (2)
quantitative simulation, for simulation between weighted automata. While fair
trace inclusion is PSPACE-complete, fair simulation can be computed in polynomial
time. For weighted automata, the (quantitative) language inclusion problem is
undecidable in general, whereas the (quantitative) simulation reduces to quantitative
games, which admit pseudo-polynomial time algorithms.\r\n\r\nIn this work, we
study (quantitative) simulation for weighted automata with Büchi acceptance conditions,
i.e., we generalize fair simulation from non-weighted automata to weighted automata.
We show that imposing Büchi acceptance conditions on weighted automata changes
many fundamental properties of the simulation games, yet they still admit pseudo-polynomial
time algorithms."

text: Pushdown systems (PDSs) and recursive state machines (RSMs), which are linearly
equivalent, are standard models for interprocedural analysis. Yet RSMs are more
convenient as they (a) explicitly model function calls and returns, and (b) specify
many natural parameters for algorithmic analysis, e.g., the number of entries
and exits. We consider a general framework where RSM transitions are labeled from
a semiring and path properties are algebraic with semiring operations, which can
model, e.g., interprocedural reachability and dataflow analysis problems. Our
main contributions are new algorithms for several fundamental problems. As compared
to a direct translation of RSMs to PDSs and the best-known existing bounds of
PDSs, our analysis algorithm improves the complexity for finite-height semirings
(that subsumes reachability and standard dataflow properties). We further consider
the problem of extracting distance values from the representation structures computed
by our algorithm, and give efficient algorithms that distinguish the complexity
of a one-time preprocessing from the complexity of each individual query. Another
advantage of our algorithm is that our improvements carry over to the concurrent
setting, where we improve the bestknown complexity for the context-bounded analysis
of concurrent RSMs. Finally, we provide a prototype implementation that gives
a significant speed-up on several benchmarks from the SLAM/SDV project.

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 overapproximation
defined on top of this smaller state space. When the approximations are too coarse
to find such profiles, we refine the abstraction function. Our experimental results
demonstrate the efficiency of the methodology.

text: 'We present a new algorithm for model counting of a class of string constraints.
In addition to the classic operation of concatenation, our class includes some
recursively defined operations such as Kleene closure, and replacement of substrings.
Additionally, our class also includes length constraints on the string expressions,
which means, by requiring reasoning about numbers, that we face a multi-sorted
logic. In the end, our string constraints are motivated by their use in programming
for web applications. Our algorithm comprises two novel features: the ability
to use a technique of (1) partial derivatives for constraints that are already
in a solved form, i.e. a form where its (string) satisfiability is clearly displayed,
and (2) non-progression, where cyclic reasoning in the reduction process may be
terminated (thus allowing for the algorithm to look elsewhere). Finally, we experimentally
compare our model counter with two recent works on model counting of similar constraints,
SMC [18] and ABC [5], to demonstrate its superior performance.'

text: 'A notable class of techniques for automatic program repair is known as semantics-based.
Such techniques, e.g., Angelix, infer semantic specifications via symbolic execution,
and then use program synthesis to construct new code that satisfies those inferred
specifications. However, the obtained specifications are naturally incomplete,
leaving the synthesis engine with a difficult task of synthesizing a general solution
from a sparse space of many possible solutions that are consistent with the provided
specifications but that do not necessarily generalize. We present S3, a new repair
synthesis engine that leverages programming-by-examples methodology to synthesize
high-quality bug repairs. The novelty in S3 that allows it to tackle the sparse
search space to create more general repairs is three-fold: (1) A systematic way
to customize and constrain the syntactic search space via a domain-specific language,
(2) An efficient enumeration-based search strategy over the constrained search
space, and (3) A number of ranking features based on measures of the syntactic
and semantic distances between candidate solutions and the original buggy program.
We compare S3’s repair effectiveness with state-of-the-art synthesis engines Angelix,
Enumerative, and CVC4. S3 can successfully and correctly fix at least three times
more bugs than the best baseline on datasets of 52 bugs in small programs, and
100 bugs in real-world large programs. '

text: "This special issue of the Journal on Formal Methods in System Design is dedicated
to Prof. Helmut Veith, who unexpectedly passed away in March 2016. Helmut Veith
was a brilliant researcher, inspiring collaborator, passionate mentor, generous
friend, and valued member of the formal methods community. Helmut was not only
known for his numerous and influential contributions in the field of automated
verification (most prominently his work on Counterexample-Guided Abstraction Refinement
[1,2]), but also for his untiring and passionate efforts for the logic community:
he co-organized the Vienna Summer of Logic (an event comprising twelve conferences
and numerous workshops which attracted thousands of researchers from all over
the world), he initiated the Vienna Center for Logic and Algorithms (which promotes
international collaboration on logic and algorithms and organizes outreach events
such as the LogicLounge), and he coordinated the Doctoral Program on Logical Methods
in Computer Science at TU Wien (currently educating more than 40 doctoral students)
and a National Research Network on Rigorous Systems Engineering (uniting fifteen
researchers in Austria to address the challenge of building reliable and safe
computer\r\nsystems). With his enthusiasm and commitment, Helmut completely reshaped
the Austrian research landscape in the field of logic and verification in his
few years as a full professor at TU Wien."

text: Model checking is usually based on a comprehensive traversal of the state
space. Causality-based model checking is a radically different approach that instead
analyzes the cause-effect relationships in a program. We give an overview on a
new class of model checking algorithms that capture the causal relationships in
a special data structure called concurrent traces. Concurrent traces identify
key events in an execution history and link them through their cause-effect relationships.
The model checker builds a tableau of concurrent traces, where the case splits
represent different causal explanations of a hypothetical error. Causality-based
model checking has been implemented in the ARCTOR tool, and applied to previously
intractable multi-threaded benchmarks.

text: ' While weighted automata provide a natural framework to express quantitative
properties, many basic properties like average response time cannot be expressed
with weighted automata. Nested weighted automata extend weighted automata and
consist of a master automaton and a set of slave automata that are invoked by
the master automaton. Nested weighted automata are strictly more expressive than
weighted automata (e.g., average response time can be expressed with nested weighted
automata), but the basic decision questions have higher complexity (e.g., for
deterministic automata, the emptiness question for nested weighted automata is
PSPACE-hard, whereas the corresponding complexity for weighted automata is PTIME).
We consider a natural subclass of nested weighted automata where at any point
at most a bounded number k of slave automata can be active. We focus on automata
whose master value function is the limit average. We show that these nested weighted
automata with bounded width are strictly more expressive than weighted automata
(e.g., average response time with no overlapping requests can be expressed with
bound k=1, but not with non-nested weighted automata). We show that the complexity
of the basic decision problems (i.e., emptiness and universality) for the subclass
with k constant matches the complexity for weighted automata. Moreover, when k
is part of the input given in unary we establish PSPACE-completeness.'

text: ' The semantics of concurrent data structures is usually given by a sequential
specification and a consistency condition. Linearizability is the most popular
consistency condition due to its simplicity and general applicability. Nevertheless,
for applications that do not require all guarantees offered by linearizability,
recent research has focused on improving performance and scalability of concurrent
data structures by relaxing their semantics. In this paper, we present local linearizability,
a relaxed consistency condition that is applicable to container-type concurrent
data structures like pools, queues, and stacks. While linearizability requires
that the effect of each operation is observed by all threads at the same time,
local linearizability only requires that for each thread T, the effects of its
local insertion operations and the effects of those removal operations that remove
values inserted by T are observed by all threads at the same time. We investigate
theoretical and practical properties of local linearizability and its relationship
to many existing consistency conditions. We present a generic implementation method
for locally linearizable data structures that uses existing linearizable data
structures as building blocks. Our implementations show performance and scalability
improvements over the original building blocks and outperform the fastest existing
container-type implementations. '

text: We propose two parallel state-space-exploration algorithms for hybrid automaton
(HA), with the goal of enhancing performance on multi-core shared-memory systems.
The first uses the parallel, breadth-first-search algorithm (PBFS) of the SPIN
model checker, when traversing the discrete modes of the HA, and enhances it with
a parallel exploration of the continuous states within each mode. We show that
this simple-minded extension of PBFS does not provide the desired load balancing
in many HA benchmarks. The second algorithm is a task-parallel BFS algorithm (TP-BFS),
which uses a cheap precomputation of the cost associated with the post operations
(both continuous and discrete) in order to improve load balancing. We illustrate
the TP-BFS and the cost precomputation of the post operators on a support-function-based
algorithm for state-space exploration. The performance comparison of the two algorithms
shows that, in general, TP-BFS provides a better utilization/load-balancing of
the CPU. Both algorithms are implemented in the model checker XSpeed. Our experiments
show a maximum speed-up of more than 2000 χ on a navigation benchmark, with respect
to SpaceEx LGG scenario. In order to make the comparison fair, we employed an
equal number of post operations in both tools. To the best of our knowledge, this
paper represents the first attempt to provide parallel, reachability-analysis
algorithms for HA.

text: 'Time-triggered (TT) switched networks are a deterministic communication infrastructure
used by real-time distributed embedded systems. These networks rely on the notion
of globally discretized time (i.e. time slots) and a static TT schedule that prescribes
which message is sent through which link at every time slot, such that all messages
reach their destination before a global timeout. These schedules are generated
offline, assuming a static network with fault-free links, and entrusting all error-handling
functions to the end user. Assuming the network is static is an over-optimistic
view, and indeed links tend to fail in practice. We study synthesis of TT schedules
on a network in which links fail over time and we assume the switches run a very
simple error-recovery protocol once they detect a crashed link. We address the
problem of finding a pk; qresistant schedule; namely, one that, assuming the switches
run a fixed error-recovery protocol, guarantees that the number of messages that
arrive at their destination by the timeout is at least no matter what sequence
of at most k links fail. Thus, we maintain the simplicity of the switches while
giving a guarantee on the number of messages that meet the timeout. We show how
a pk; q-resistant schedule can be obtained using a CEGAR-like approach: find a
schedule, decide whether it is pk; q-resistant, and if it is not, use the witnessing
fault sequence to generate a constraint that is added to the program. The newly
added constraint disallows the schedule to be regenerated in a future iteration
while also eliminating several other schedules that are not pk; q-resistant. We
illustrate the applicability of our approach using an SMT-based implementation.

text: 'Hybrid systems have both continuous and discrete dynamics and are useful
for modeling a variety of control systems, from air traffic control protocols
to robotic maneuvers and beyond. Recently, numerous powerful and scalable tools
for analyzing hybrid systems have emerged. Several of these tools implement automated
formal methods for mathematically proving a system meets a specification. This
tutorial session will present three recent hybrid systems tools: C2E2, HyST, and
TuLiP. C2E2 is a simulated-based verification tool for hybrid systems, and uses
validated numerical solvers and bloating of simulation traces to verify systems
meet specifications. HyST is a hybrid systems model transformation and translation
tool, and uses a canonical intermediate representation to support most of the
recent verification tools, as well as automated sound abstractions that simplify
verification of a given hybrid system. TuLiP is a controller synthesis tool for
hybrid systems, where given a temporal logic specification to be satisfied for
a system (plant) model, TuLiP will find a controller that meets a given specification.

text: Automata with monitor counters, where the transitions do not depend on counter
values, and nested weighted automata are two expressive automata-theoretic frameworks
for quantitative properties. For a well-studied and wide class of quantitative
functions, we establish that automata with monitor counters and nested weighted
automata are equivalent. We study for the first time such quantitative automata
under probabilistic semantics. We show that several problems that are undecidable
for the classical questions of emptiness and universality become decidable under
the probabilistic semantics. We present a complete picture of decidability for
such automata, and even an almost-complete picture of computational complexity,
for the probabilistic questions we consider. © 2016 ACM.

text: Many biological systems can be modeled as multiaffine hybrid systems. Due
to the nonlinearity of multiaffine systems, it is difficult to verify their properties
of interest directly. A common strategy to tackle this problem is to construct
and analyze a discrete overapproximation of the original system. However, the
conservativeness of a discrete abstraction significantly determines the level
of confidence we can have in the properties of the original system. In this paper,
in order to reduce the conservativeness of a discrete abstraction, we propose
a new method based on a sufficient and necessary decision condition for computing
discrete transitions between states in the abstract system. We assume the state
space partition of a multiaffine system to be based on a set of multivariate polynomials.
Hence, a rectangular partition defined in terms of polynomials of the form (xi
− c) is just a simple case of multivariate polynomial partition, and the new decision
condition applies naturally. We analyze and demonstrate the improvement of our
method over the existing methods using some examples.

text: Simulink is widely used for model driven development (MDD) of industrial software
systems. Typically, the Simulink based development is initiated from Stateflow
modeling, followed by simulation, validation and code generation mapped to physical
execution platforms. However, recent industrial trends have raised the demands
of rigorous verification on safety-critical applications, which is unfortunately
challenging for Simulink. In this paper, we present an approach to bridge the
Stateflow based model driven development and a well- defined rigorous verification.
First, we develop a self- contained toolkit to translate Stateflow model into
timed automata, where major advanced modeling features in Stateflow are supported.
Taking advantage of the strong verification capability of Uppaal, we can not only
find bugs in Stateflow models which are missed by Simulink Design Verifier, but
also check more important temporal properties. Next, we customize a runtime verifier
for the generated nonintrusive VHDL and C code of Stateflow model for monitoring.
The major strength of the customization is the flexibility to collect and analyze
runtime properties with a pure software monitor, which opens more opportunities
for engineers to achieve high reliability of the target system compared with the
traditional act that only relies on Simulink Polyspace. We incorporate these two
parts into original Stateflow based MDD seamlessly. In this way, safety-critical
properties are both verified at the model level, and at the consistent system
implementation level with physical execution environment in consideration. We
apply our approach on a train controller design, and the verified implementation
is tested and deployed on a real hardware platform.

text: In this paper we review various automata-theoretic formalisms for expressing
quantitative properties. We start with finite-state Boolean automata that express
the traditional regular properties. We then consider weighted ω-automata that
can measure the average density of events, which finite-state Boolean automata
cannot. However, even weighted ω-automata cannot express basic performance properties
like average response time. We finally consider two formalisms of weighted ω-automata
with monitors, where the monitors are either (a) counters or (b) weighted automata
themselves. We present a translation result to establish that these two formalisms
are equivalent. Weighted ω-automata with monitors generalize weighted ω-automata,
and can express average response time property. They present a natural, robust,
and expressive framework for quantitative specifications, with important decidable
properties.

text: "The goal of automatic program repair is to identify a set of syntactic changes
that can turn a program that is incorrect with respect\r\nto a given specification
into a correct one. Existing program repair techniques typically aim to find any
program that meets the given specification. Such “best-effort” strategies can
end up generating a program that is quite different from the original one. Novel
techniques have been proposed to compute syntactically minimal program fixes,
but the smallest syntactic fix to a program can still significantly alter the
original program’s behaviour. We propose a new approach to program repair based
on program distances, which can quantify changes not only to the program syntax
but also to the program semantics. We call this the quantitative program repair
problem where the “optimal” repair is derived using multiple distances. We implement
a solution to the quantitative repair\r\nproblem in a prototype tool called Qlose\r\n(Quantitatively
close), using the program synthesizer Sketch. We evaluate the effectiveness of
different distances in obtaining desirable repairs by evaluating\r\nQlose on programs
taken from educational tools such as CodeHunt and edX."

text: 'Hybridization methods enable the analysis of hybrid automata with complex,
nonlinear dynamics through a sound abstraction process. Complex dynamics are converted
to simpler ones with added noise, and then analysis is done using a reachability
method for the simpler dynamics. Several such recent approaches advocate that
only "dynamic" hybridization techniquesi.e., those where the dynamics
are abstracted on-The-fly during a reachability computation are effective. In
this paper, we demonstrate this is not the case, and create static hybridization
methods that are more scalable than earlier approaches. The main insight in our
approach is that quick, numeric simulations can be used to guide the process,
eliminating the need for an exponential number of hybridization domains. Transitions
between domains are generally timetriggered, avoiding accumulated error from geometric
intersections. We enhance our static technique by combining time-Triggered transitions
with occasional space-Triggered transitions, and demonstrate the benefits of the
combined approach in what we call mixed-Triggered hybridization. Finally, error
modes are inserted to confirm that the reachable states stay within the hybridized
regions. The developed techniques can scale to higher dimensions than previous
static approaches, while enabling the parallelization of the main performance
bottleneck for many dynamic hybridization approaches: The nonlinear optimization
required for sound dynamics abstraction. We implement our method as a model transformation
pass in the HYST tool, and perform reachability analysis and evaluation using
an unmodified version of SpaceEx on nonlinear models with up to six dimensions.'

text: Fault-tolerant distributed algorithms play an important role in many critical/high-availability
applications. These algorithms are notoriously difficult to implement correctly,
due to asynchronous communication and the occurrence of faults, such as the network
dropping messages or computers crashing. We introduce PSYNC, a domain specific
language based on the Heard-Of model, which views asynchronous faulty systems
as synchronous ones with an adversarial environment that simulates asynchrony
and faults by dropping messages. We define a runtime system for PSYNC that efficiently
executes on asynchronous networks. We formalize the relation between the runtime
system and PSYNC in terms of observational refinement. The high-level lockstep
abstraction introduced by PSYNC simplifies the design and implementation of fault-tolerant
distributed algorithms and enables automated formal verification. We have implemented
an embedding of PSYNC in the SCALA programming language with a runtime system
for asynchronous networks. We show the applicability of PSYNC by implementing
several important fault-tolerant distributed algorithms and we compare the implementation
of consensus algorithms in PSYNC against implementations in other languages in
terms of code size, runtime efficiency, and verification.

text: "When designing genetic circuits, the typical primitives used in major existing
modelling formalisms are gene interaction graphs, where edges between genes denote
either an activation or inhibition relation. However, when designing experiments,
it is important to be precise about the low-level mechanistic details as to how
each such relation is implemented. The rule-based modelling language Kappa allows
to unambiguously specify mechanistic details such as DNA binding sites, dimerisation
of transcription factors, or co-operative interactions. Such a detailed description
comes with complexity and computationally costly executions. We propose a general
method for automatically transforming a rule-based program, by eliminating intermediate
species and adjusting the rate constants accordingly. To the best of our knowledge,
we show the first automated reduction of rule-based models based on equilibrium
approximations.\r\nOur algorithm is an adaptation of an existing algorithm, which
was designed for reducing reaction-based programs; our version of the algorithm
scans the rule-based Kappa model in search for those interaction patterns known
to be amenable to equilibrium approximations (e.g. Michaelis-Menten scheme). Additional
checks are then performed in order to verify if the reduction is meaningful in
the context of the full model. The reduced model is efficiently obtained by static
inspection over the rule-set. The tool is tested on a detailed rule-based model
of a λ-phage switch, which lists 92 rules and 13 agents. The reduced model has
11 rules and 5 agents, and provides a dramatic reduction in simulation time of
several orders of magnitude."

text: 'We present the first study of robustness of systems that are both timed as
well as reactive (I/O). We study the behavior of such timed I/O systems in the
presence of uncertain inputs and formalize their robustness using the analytic
notion of Lipschitz continuity: a timed I/O system is K-(Lipschitz) robust if
the perturbation in its output is at most K times the perturbation in its input.
We quantify input and output perturbation using similarity functions over timed
words such as the timed version of the Manhattan distance and the Skorokhod distance.
We consider two models of timed I/O systems — timed transducers and asynchronous
sequential circuits. We show that K-robustness of timed transducers can be decided
in polynomial space under certain conditions. For asynchronous sequential circuits,
we reduce K-robustness w.r.t. timed Manhattan distances to K-robustness of discrete
letter-to-letter transducers and show PSpace-completeness of the 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. © 2016 Elsevier Ireland Ltd

text: Hybrid systems represent an important and powerful formalism for modeling
real-world applications such as embedded systems. A verification tool like SpaceEx
is based on the exploration of a symbolic search space (the region space). As
a verification tool, it is typically optimized towards proving the absence of
errors. In some settings, e.g., when the verification tool is employed in a feedback-directed
design cycle, one would like to have the option to call a version that is optimized
towards finding an error trajectory in the region space. A recent approach in
this direction is based on guided search. Guided search relies on a cost function
that indicates which states are promising to be explored, and preferably explores
more promising states first. In this paper, we propose an abstraction-based cost
function based on coarse-grained space abstractions for guiding the reachability
analysis. For this purpose, a suitable abstraction technique that exploits the
flexible granularity of modern reachability analysis algorithms is introduced.
The new cost function is an effective extension of pattern database approaches
that have been successfully applied in other areas. The approach has been implemented
in the SpaceEx model checker. The evaluation shows its practical potential.

text: Clinical guidelines and decision support systems (DSS) play an important role
in daily practices of medicine. Many text-based guidelines have been encoded for
work-flow simulation of DSS to automate health care. During the collaboration
with Carle hospital to develop a DSS, we identify that, for some complex and life-critical
diseases, it is highly desirable to automatically rigorously verify some complex
temporal properties in guidelines, which brings new challenges to current simulation
based DSS with limited support of automatical formal verification and real-time
data analysis. In this paper, we conduct the first study on applying runtime verification
to cooperate with current DSS based on real-time data. Within the proposed technique,
a user-friendly domain specific language, named DRTV, is designed to specify vital
real-time data sampled by medical devices and temporal properties originated from
clinical guidelines. Some interfaces are developed for data acquisition and communication.
Then, for medical practice scenarios described in DRTV model, we will automatically
generate event sequences and runtime property verifier automata. If a temporal
property violates, real-time warnings will be produced by the formal verifier
and passed to medical DSS. We have used DRTV to specify different kinds of medical
care scenarios, and applied the proposed technique to assist existing DSS. As
presented in experiment results, in terms of warning detection, it outperforms
the only use of DSS or human inspection, and improves the quality of clinical
health care of hospital

text: POMDPs are standard models for probabilistic planning problems, where an agent
interacts with an uncertain environment. We study the problem of almost-sure reachability,
where given a set of target states, the question is to decide whether there is
a policy to ensure that the target set is reached with probability 1 (almost-surely).
While in general the problem is EXPTIMEcomplete, in many practical cases policies
with a small amount of memory suffice. Moreover, the existing solution to the
problem is explicit, which first requires to construct explicitly an exponential
reduction to a belief-support MDP. In this work, we first study the existence
of observation-stationary strategies, which is NP-complete, and then small-memory
strategies. We present a symbolic algorithm by an efficient encoding to SAT and
using a SAT solver for the problem. We report experimental results demonstrating
the scalability of our symbolic (SAT-based) approach. © 2016, Association for

text: In resource allocation games, selfish players share resources that are needed
in order to fulfill their objectives. The cost of using a resource depends on
the load on it. In the traditional setting, the players make their choices concurrently
and in one-shot. That is, a strategy for a player is a subset of the resources.
We introduce and study dynamic resource allocation games. In this setting, the
game proceeds in phases. In each phase each player chooses one resource. A scheduler
dictates the order in which the players proceed in a phase, possibly scheduling
several players to proceed concurrently. The game ends when each player has collected
a set of resources that fulfills his objective. The cost for each player then
depends on this set as well as on the load on the resources in it – we consider
both congestion and cost-sharing games. We argue that the dynamic setting is the
suitable setting for many applications in practice. We study the stability of
dynamic resource allocation games, where the appropriate notion of stability is
that of subgame perfect equilibrium, study the inefficiency incurred due to selfish
behavior, and also study problems that are particular to the dynamic setting,
like constraints on the order in which resources can be chosen or the problem
of finding a scheduler that achieves stability.

text: "In this thesis we present a computer-aided programming approach to concurrency.
Our approach helps the programmer by automatically fixing concurrency-related
bugs, i.e. bugs that occur when the program is executed using an aggressive preemptive
scheduler, but not when using a non-preemptive (cooperative) scheduler. Bugs are
program behaviours that are incorrect w.r.t. a specification. We consider both
user-provided explicit specifications in the form of assertion\r\nstatements in
the code as well as an implicit specification. The implicit specification is inferred
from the non-preemptive behaviour. Let us consider sequences of calls that the
program makes to an external interface. The implicit specification requires that
any such sequence produced under a preemptive scheduler should be included in
the set of sequences produced under a non-preemptive scheduler. We consider several
semantics-preserving fixes that go beyond atomic sections typically explored in
the synchronisation synthesis literature. Our synthesis is able to place locks,
barriers and wait-signal statements and last, but not least reorder independent
statements. The latter may be useful if a thread is released to early, e.g., before
some initialisation is completed. We guarantee that our synthesis does not introduce
deadlocks and that the synchronisation inserted is optimal w.r.t. a given objective
function. We dub our solution trace-based synchronisation synthesis and it is
loosely based on counterexample-guided inductive synthesis (CEGIS). The synthesis
works by discovering a trace that is incorrect w.r.t. the specification and identifying
ordering constraints crucial to trigger the specification violation. Synchronisation
may be placed immediately (greedy approach) or delayed until all incorrect traces
are found (non-greedy approach). For the non-greedy approach we construct a set
of global constraints over synchronisation placements. Each model of the global
constraints set corresponds to a correctness-ensuring synchronisation placement.
The placement that is optimal w.r.t. the given objective function is chosen as
the synchronisation solution. We evaluate our approach on a number of realistic
(albeit simplified) Linux device-driver\r\nbenchmarks. The benchmarks are versions
of the drivers with known concurrency-related bugs. For the experiments with an
explicit specification we added assertions that would detect the bugs in the experiments.
Device drivers lend themselves to implicit specification, where the device and
the operating system are the external interfaces. Our experiments demonstrate
that our synthesis method is precise and efficient. We implemented objective functions
for coarse-grained and fine-grained locking and observed that different synchronisation
placements are produced for our experiments, favouring e.g. a minimal number of
synchronisation operations or maximum concurrency."

text: We present a new algorithm for the statistical model checking of Markov chains
with respect to unbounded temporal properties, including full linear temporal
logic. The main idea is that we monitor each simulation run on the fly, in order
to detect quickly if a bottom strongly connected component is entered with high
probability, in which case the simulation run can be terminated early. As a result,
our simulation runs are often much shorter than required by termination bounds
that are computed a priori for a desired level of confidence on a large state
space. In comparison to previous algorithms for statistical model checking our
method is not only faster in many cases but also requires less information about
the system, namely, only the minimum transition probability that occurs in the
Markov chain. In addition, our method can be generalised to unbounded quantitative
properties such as mean-payoff bounds.

text: Concolic testing is a promising method for generating test suites for large
programs. However, it suffers from the path-explosion problem and often fails
to find tests that cover difficult-to-reach parts of programs. In contrast, model
checkers based on counterexample-guided abstraction refinement explore programs
exhaustively, while failing to scale on large programs with precision. In this
paper, we present a novel method that iteratively combines concolic testing and
model checking to find a test suite for a given coverage criterion. If concolic
testing fails to cover some test goals, then the model checker refines its program
abstraction to prove more paths infeasible, which reduces the search space for
concolic testing. We have implemented our method on top of the concolictesting
tool Crest and the model checker CpaChecker. We evaluated our tool on a collection
of programs and a category of SvComp benchmarks. In our experiments, we observed
an improvement in branch coverage compared to Crest from 48% to 63% in the best
case, and from 66% to 71% on average.

text: "We present an extension to the quantifier-free theory of integer arrays which
allows us to express counting. The properties expressible in Array Folds Logic
(AFL) include statements such as "the first array cell contains the array
length," and "the array contains equally many minimal and maximal elements."
These properties cannot be expressed in quantified fragments of the theory of
arrays, nor in the theory of concatenation. Using reduction to counter machines,
we show that the satisfiability problem of AFL is PSPACE-complete, and with a
natural restriction the complexity decreases to NP. We also show that adding either
universal quantifiers or concatenation leads to undecidability.\r\nAFL contains
terms that fold a function over an array. We demonstrate that folding, a well-known
concept from functional languages, allows us to concisely summarize loops that
count over arrays, which occurs frequently in real-life programs. We provide a
tool that can discharge proof obligations in AFL, and we demonstrate on practical
examples that our decision procedure can solve a broad range of problems in symbolic
testing and program verification."

text: In this paper, we present a formal model-driven engineering approach to establishing
a safety-assured implementation of Multifunction vehicle bus controller (MVBC)
based on the generic reference models and requirements described in the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard IEC-61375. First, the generic models
described in IEC-61375 are translated into a network of timed automata, and some
safety requirements tested in IEC-61375 are formalized as timed computation tree
logic (TCTL) formulas. With the help of Uppaal, we check and debug whether the
timed automata satisfy the formulas or not. Within this step, several logic inconsistencies
in the original standard are detected and corrected. Then, we apply the tool Times
to generate C code from the verified model, which was later synthesized into a
real MVBC chip. Finally, the runtime verification tool RMOR is applied to verify
some safety requirements at the implementation level. We set up a real platform
with worldwide mostly used MVBC D113, and verify the correctness and the scalability
of the synthesized MVBC chip more comprehensively. The errors in the standard
has been confirmed and the resulted MVBC has been deployed in real train communication
network.

text: Mathematical models are of fundamental importance in the understanding of
complex population dynamics. For instance, they can be used to predict the population
evolution starting from different initial conditions or to test how a system responds
to external perturbations. For this analysis to be meaningful in real applications,
however, it is of paramount importance to choose an appropriate model structure
and to infer the model parameters from measured data. While many parameter inference
methods are available for models based on deterministic ordinary differential
equations, the same does not hold for more detailed individual-based models. Here
we consider, in particular, stochastic models in which the time evolution of the
species abundances is described by a continuous-time Markov chain. These models
are governed by a master equation that is typically difficult to solve. Consequently,
traditional inference methods that rely on iterative evaluation of parameter likelihoods
are computationally intractable. The aim of this paper is to present recent advances
in parameter inference for continuous-time Markov chain models, based on a moment
closure approximation of the parameter likelihood, and to investigate how these
results can help in understanding, and ultimately controlling, complex systems
in ecology. Specifically, we illustrate through an agricultural pest case study
how parameters of a stochastic individual-based model can be identified from measured
data and how the resulting model can be used to solve an optimal control problem
in a stochastic setting. In particular, we show how the matter of determining
the optimal combination of two different pest control methods can be formulated
as a chance constrained optimization problem where the control action is modeled
as a state reset, leading to a hybrid system formulation.

text: Fault-tolerant distributed algorithms play an important role in many critical/high-availability
applications. These algorithms are notoriously difficult to implement correctly,
due to asynchronous communication and the occurrence of faults, such as the network
dropping messages or computers crashing. Nonetheless there is surprisingly little
language and verification support to build distributed systems based on fault-tolerant
algorithms. In this paper, we present some of the challenges that a designer has
to overcome to implement a fault-tolerant distributed system. Then we review different
models that have been proposed to reason about distributed algorithms and sketch
how such a model can form the basis for a domain-specific programming language.
Adopting a high-level programming model can simplify the programmer's life and
make the code amenable to automated verification, while still compiling to efficiently
executable code. We conclude by summarizing the current status of an ongoing language
design and implementation project that is based on this idea.

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: Systems biology rests on the idea that biological complexity can be better
unraveled through the interplay of modeling and experimentation. However, the
success of this approach depends critically on the informativeness of the chosen
experiments, which is usually unknown a priori. Here, we propose a systematic
scheme based on iterations of optimal experiment design, flow cytometry experiments,
and Bayesian parameter inference to guide the discovery process in the case of
stochastic biochemical reaction networks. To illustrate the benefit of our methodology,
we apply it to the characterization of an engineered light-inducible gene expression
circuit in yeast and compare the performance of the resulting model with models
identified from nonoptimal experiments. In particular, we compare the parameter
posterior distributions and the precision to which the outcome of future experiments
can be predicted. Moreover, we illustrate how the identified stochastic model
can be used to determine light induction patterns that make either the average
amount of protein or the variability in a population of cells follow a desired
profile. Our results show that optimal experiment design allows one to derive
models that are accurate enough to precisely predict and regulate the protein
expression in heterogeneous cell populations over extended periods of time.

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: 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.

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: 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: 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: 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: 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: '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: 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.

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: 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: 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: '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: '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: '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: '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: 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: "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."

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.

or views. The latter can be used to generate tests for patches of an already tested
system. Both operators can combine systems with different action alphabets, which
is usually the case when constructing complex systems and specifications from
parts, for instance different views as well as newly defined functionality of
a~previous version of the system.

text: 'We consider Markov decision processes (MDPs) which are a standard model for
probabilistic systems. We focus on qualitative properties for MDPs that can express
that desired behaviors of the system arise almost-surely (with probability 1)
or with positive probability. We introduce a new simulation relation to capture
the refinement relation of MDPs with respect to qualitative properties, and present
discrete graph algorithms with quadratic complexity to compute the simulation
relation. We present an automated technique for assume-guarantee style reasoning
for compositional analysis of two-player games by giving a counterexample guided
abstraction-refinement approach to compute our new simulation relation. We show
a tight link between two-player games and MDPs, and as a consequence the results
for games are lifted to MDPs with qualitative properties. We have implemented
our algorithms and show that the compositional analysis leads to significant improvements. '

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: 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: 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.

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: Fault-tolerant distributed algorithms play an important role in ensuring the
reliability of many software applications. In this paper we consider distributed
algorithms whose computations are organized in rounds. To verify the correctness
of such algorithms, we reason about (i) properties (such as invariants) of the
state, (ii) the transitions controlled by the algorithm, and (iii) the communication
graph. We introduce a logic that addresses these points, and contains set comprehensions
with cardinality constraints, function symbols to describe the local states of
each process, and a limited form of quantifier alternation to express the verification
conditions. We show its use in automating the verification of consensus algorithms.
In particular, we give a semi-decision procedure for the unsatisfiability problem
of the logic and identify a decidable fragment. We successfully applied our framework
to verify the correctness of a variety of consensus algorithms tolerant to both
benign faults (message loss, process crashes) and value faults (message corruption).

text: 'Probabilistic programs are usual functional or imperative programs with two
added constructs: (1) the ability to draw values at random from distributions,
and (2) the ability to condition values of variables in a program via observations.
Models from diverse application areas such as computer vision, coding theory,
cryptographic protocols, biology and reliability analysis can be written as probabilistic
programs. Probabilistic inference is the problem of computing an explicit representation
of the probability distribution implicitly specified by a probabilistic program.
Depending on the application, the desired output from inference may vary-we may
want to estimate the expected value of some function f with respect to the distribution,
or the mode of the distribution, or simply a set of samples drawn from the distribution.
In this paper, we describe connections this research area called \Probabilistic
Programming" has with programming languages and software engineering, and
this includes language design, and the static and dynamic analysis of programs.
We survey current state of the art and speculate on promising directions for future
research.'

text: In this paper we present INTERHORN, a solver for recursion-free Horn clauses.
The main application domain of INTERHORN lies in solving interpolation problems
arising in software verification. We show how a range of interpolation problems,
including path, transition, nested, state/transition and well-founded interpolation
can be handled directly by INTERHORN. By detailing these interpolation problems
and their Horn clause representations, we hope to encourage the emergence of a
common back-end interpolation interface useful for diverse verification tools.

text: Boolean controllers for systems with complex datapaths are often very difficult
to implement correctly, in particular when concurrency is involved. Yet, in many
instances it is easy to formally specify correctness. For example, the specification
for the controller of a pipelined processor only has to state that the pipelined
processor gives the same results as a non-pipelined reference design. This makes
such controllers a good target for automated synthesis. However, an efficient
abstraction for the complex datapath elements is needed, as a bit-precise description
is often infeasible. We present Suraq, the first controller synthesis tool which
uses uninterpreted functions for the abstraction. Quantified firstorder formulas
(with specific quantifier structure) serve as the specification language from
which Suraq synthesizes Boolean controllers. Suraq transforms the specification
into an unsatisfiable SMT formula, and uses Craig interpolation to compute its
results. Using Suraq, we were able to synthesize a controller (consisting of two
Boolean signals) for a five-stage pipelined DLX processor in roughly one hour
and 15 minutes.

text: Extensionality axioms are common when reasoning about data collections, such
as arrays and functions in program analysis, or sets in mathematics. An extensionality
axiom asserts that two collections are equal if they consist of the same elements
at the same indices. Using extensionality is often required to show that two collections
are equal. A typical example is the set theory theorem (∀x)(∀y)x∪y = y ∪x. Interestingly,
while humans have no problem with proving such set identities using extensionality,
they are very hard for superposition theorem provers because of the calculi they
use. In this paper we show how addition of a new inference rule, called extensionality
resolution, allows first-order theorem provers to easily solve problems no modern
first-order theorem prover can solve. We illustrate this by running the VAMPIRE
theorem prover with extensionality resolution on a number of set theory and array
problems. Extensionality resolution helps VAMPIRE to solve problems from the TPTP
library of first-order problems that were never solved before by any prover.

text: We investigate the problem of checking if a finite-state transducer is robust
to uncertainty in its input. Our notion of robustness is based on the analytic
notion of Lipschitz continuity - a transducer is K-(Lipschitz) robust if the perturbation
in its output is at most K times the perturbation in its input. We quantify input
and output perturbation using similarity functions. We show that K-robustness
is undecidable even for deterministic transducers. We identify a class of functional
transducers, which admits a polynomial time automata-theoretic decision procedure
for K-robustness. This class includes Mealy machines and functional letter-to-letter
transducers. We also study K-robustness of nondeterministic transducers. Since
a nondeterministic transducer generates a set of output words for each input word,
we quantify output perturbation using setsimilarity functions. We show that K-robustness
of nondeterministic transducers is undecidable, even for letter-to-letter transducers.
We identify a class of set-similarity functions which admit decidable K-robustness
of letter-to-letter transducers.

text: We present a formal framework for repairing infinite-state, imperative, sequential
programs, with (possibly recursive) procedures and multiple assertions; the framework
can generate repaired programs by modifying the original erroneous program in
multiple program locations, and can ensure the readability of the repaired program
using user-defined expression templates; the framework also generates a set of
inductive assertions that serve as a proof of correctness of the repaired program.
As a step toward integrating programmer intent and intuition in automated program
repair, we present a cost-aware formulation - given a cost function associated
with permissible statement modifications, the goal is to ensure that the total
program modification cost does not exceed a given repair budget. As part of our
predicate abstractionbased solution framework, we present a sound and complete
algorithm for repair of Boolean programs. We have developed a prototype tool based
on SMT solving and used it successfully to repair diverse errors in benchmark
C programs.

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: 'We present a tool for translating LTL formulae into deterministic ω-automata.
It is the first tool that covers the whole LTL that does not use Safra’s determinization
or any of its variants. This leads to smaller automata. There are several outputs
of the tool: firstly, deterministic Rabin automata, which are the standard input
for probabilistic model checking, e.g. for the probabilistic model-checker PRISM;
secondly, deterministic generalized Rabin automata, which can also be used for
probabilistic model checking and are sometimes by orders of magnitude smaller.
We also link our tool to PRISM and show that this leads to a significant speed-up
of probabilistic LTL model checking, especially with the generalized Rabin automata.'

text: In contrast to the usual understanding of probabilistic systems as stochastic
processes, recently these systems have also been regarded as transformers of probabilities.
In this paper, we give a natural definition of strong bisimulation for probabilistic
systems corresponding to this view that treats probability distributions as first-class
citizens. Our definition applies in the same way to discrete systems as well as
to systems with uncountable state and action spaces. Several examples demonstrate
that our definition refines the understanding of behavioural equivalences of probabilistic
systems. In particular, it solves a longstanding open problem concerning the representation
of memoryless continuous time by memoryfull continuous time. Finally, we give
algorithms for computing this bisimulation not only for finite but also for classes
of uncountably infinite systems.

text: 'We consider a continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) whose state space is partitioned
into aggregates, and each aggregate is assigned a probability measure. A sufficient
condition for defining a CTMC over the aggregates is presented as a variant of
weak lumpability, which also characterizes that the measure over the original
process can be recovered from that of the aggregated one. We show how the applicability
of de-aggregation depends on the initial distribution. The application section
is devoted to illustrate how the developed theory aids in reducing CTMC models
of biochemical systems particularly in connection to protein-protein interactions.
We assume that the model is written by a biologist in form of site-graph-rewrite
rules. Site-graph-rewrite rules compactly express that, often, only a local context
of a protein (instead of a full molecular species) needs to be in a certain configuration
in order to trigger a reaction event. This observation leads to suitable aggregate
Markov chains with smaller state spaces, thereby providing sufficient reduction
in computational complexity. This is further exemplified in two case studies:
simple unbounded polymerization and early EGFR/insulin crosstalk.'

text: 'Systems should not only be correct but also robust in the sense that they
behave reasonably in unexpected situations. This article addresses synthesis of
robust reactive systems from temporal specifications. Existing methods allow arbitrary
behavior if assumptions in the specification are violated. To overcome this, we
define two robustness notions, combine them, and show how to enforce them in synthesis.
The first notion applies to safety properties: If safety assumptions are violated
temporarily, we require that the system recovers to normal operation with as few
errors as possible. The second notion requires that, if liveness assumptions are
violated, as many guarantees as possible should be fulfilled nevertheless. We
present a synthesis procedure achieving this for the important class of GR(1)
specifications, and establish complexity bounds. We also present an implementation
of a special case of robustness, and show experimental results.'

text: We present a new algorithm to construct a (generalized) deterministic Rabin
automaton for an LTL formula φ. The automaton is the product of a master automaton
and an array of slave automata, one for each G-subformula of φ. The slave automaton
for G ψ is in charge of recognizing whether FG ψ holds. As opposed to standard
determinization procedures, the states of all our automata have a clear logical
structure, which allows for various optimizations. Our construction subsumes former
algorithms for fragments of LTL. Experimental results show improvement in the
sizes of the resulting automata compared to existing methods.

text: ' A discounted-sum automaton (NDA) is a nondeterministic finite automaton
with edge weights, valuing a run by the discounted sum of visited edge weights.
More precisely, the weight in the i-th position of the run is divided by λi, where
the discount factor λ is a fixed rational number greater than 1. The value of
a word is the minimal value of the automaton runs on it. Discounted summation
is a common and useful measuring scheme, especially for infinite sequences, reflecting
the assumption that earlier weights are more important than later weights. Unfortunately,
determinization of NDAs, which is often essential in formal verification, is,
in general, not possible. We provide positive news, showing that every NDA with
an integral discount factor is determinizable. We complete the picture by proving
that the integers characterize exactly the discount factors that guarantee determinizability:
for every nonintegral rational discount factor λ, there is a nondeterminizable
λ-NDA. We also prove that the class of NDAs with integral discount factors enjoys
closure under the algebraic operations min, max, addition, and subtraction, which
is not the case for general NDAs nor for deterministic NDAs. For general NDAs,
we look into approximate determinization, which is always possible as the influence
of a word''s suffix decays. We show that the naive approach, of unfolding the
automaton computations up to a sufficient level, is doubly exponential in the
discount factor. We provide an alternative construction for approximate determinization,
which is singly exponential in the discount factor, in the precision, and in the
number of states. We also prove matching lower bounds, showing that the exponential
dependency on each of these three parameters cannot be avoided. All our results
hold equally for automata over finite words and for automata over infinite words. '

text: The analysis of the energy consumption of software is an important goal for
quantitative formal methods. Current methods, using weighted transition systems
or energy games, model the energy source as an ideal resource whose status is
characterized by one number, namely the amount of remaining energy. Real batteries,
however, exhibit behaviors that can deviate substantially from an ideal energy
resource. Based on a discretization of a standard continuous battery model, we
introduce battery transition systems. In this model, a battery is viewed as consisting
of two parts-the available-charge tank and the bound-charge tank. Any charge or
discharge is applied to the available-charge tank. Over time, the energy from
each tank diffuses to the other tank. Battery transition systems are infinite
state systems that, being not well-structured, fall into no decidable class that
is known to us. Nonetheless, we are able to prove that the !-regular modelchecking
problem is decidable for battery transition systems. We also present a case study
on the verification of control programs for energy-constrained semi-autonomous
robots.
