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.","lang":"eng"}],"doi":"10.1007/978-3-662-44584-6_18","month":"09","editor":[{"full_name":"Baldan, Paolo","last_name":"Baldan","first_name":"Paolo"},{"first_name":"Daniele","full_name":"Gorla, Daniele","last_name":"Gorla"}],"acknowledgement":"This work is supported by the EU 7th Framework Programme under grant agreements 295261 (MEALS) and 318490 (SENSATION), Czech Science Foundation under grant agreement P202/12/G061, the DFG Transregional Collaborative Research Centre SFB/TR 14 AVACS, and by the CAS/SAFEA International Partnership Program for Creative Research Teams.","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.5084"}],"day":"01","title":"Probabilistic bisimulation: Naturally on distributions","author":[{"last_name":"Hermanns","full_name":"Hermanns, Holger","first_name":"Holger"},{"last_name":"Krčál","full_name":"Krčál, Jan","first_name":"Jan"},{"full_name":"Kretinsky, Jan","id":"44CEF464-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-8122-2881","last_name":"Kretinsky","first_name":"Jan"}],"date_created":"2018-12-11T11:55:27Z","intvolume":"      8704","citation":{"ama":"Hermanns H, Krčál J, Kretinsky J.
