text: 'We introduce TopoCut: a new way to integrate knowledge about topological
properties (TPs) into random field image segmentation model. Instead of including
TPs as additional constraints during minimization of the energy function, we devise
an efficient algorithm for modifying the unary potentials such that the resulting
segmentation is guaranteed with the desired properties. Our method is more flexible
in the sense that it handles more topology constraints than previous methods,
which were only able to enforce pairwise or global connectivity. In particular,
our method is very fast, making it for the first time possible to enforce global
topological properties in practical image segmentation tasks.'

text: We present a new decidable logic called TREX for expressing constraints about
imperative tree data structures. In particular, TREX supports a transitive closure
operator that can express reachability constraints, which often appear in data
structure invariants. We show that our logic is closed under weakest precondition
computation, which enables its use for automated software verification. We further
show that satisfiability of formulas in TREX is decidable in NP. The low complexity
makes it an attractive alternative to more expensive logics such as monadic second-order
logic (MSOL) over trees, which have been traditionally used for reasoning about
tree data structures.

text: 'We consider probabilistic automata on infinite words with acceptance defined
by parity conditions. We consider three qualitative decision problems: (i) the
positive decision problem asks whether there is a word that is accepted with positive
probability; (ii) the almost decision problem asks whether there is a word that
is accepted with probability 1; and (iii) the limit decision problem asks whether
for every ε > 0 there is a word that is accepted with probability at least 1 −
ε. We unify and generalize several decidability results for probabilistic automata
over infinite words, and identify a robust (closed under union and intersection)
subclass of probabilistic automata for which all the qualitative decision problems
are decidable for parity conditions. We also show that if the input words are
restricted to lasso shape words, then the positive and almost problems are decidable
for all probabilistic automata with parity conditions.'

text: We consider Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with mean-payoff parity and energy
parity objectives. In system design, the parity objective is used to encode ω-regular
specifications, and the mean-payoff and energy objectives can be used to model
quantitative resource constraints. The energy condition re- quires that the resource
level never drops below 0, and the mean-payoff condi- tion requires that the limit-average
value of the resource consumption is within a threshold. While these two (energy
and mean-payoff) classical conditions are equivalent for two-player games, we
show that they differ for MDPs. We show that the problem of deciding whether a
state is almost-sure winning (i.e., winning with probability 1) in energy parity
MDPs is in NP ∩ coNP, while for mean- payoff parity MDPs, the problem is solvable
in polynomial time, improving a recent PSPACE bound.

text: "We present an algorithmic method for the synthesis of concurrent programs
that are optimal with respect to quantitative performance measures. The input
consists of a sequential sketch, that is, a program that does not contain synchronization
constructs, and of a parametric performance model that assigns costs to actions
such as locking, context switching, and idling. The quantitative synthesis problem
is to automatically introduce synchronization constructs into the sequential sketch
so that both correctness is guaranteed and worst-case (or average-case) performance
is optimized. Correctness is formalized as race freedom or linearizability.\r\n\r\nWe
show that for worst-case performance, the problem can be modeled\r\nas a 2-player
graph game with quantitative (limit-average) objectives, and\r\nfor average-case
performance, as a 2 1/2 -player graph game (with probabilistic transitions). In
both cases, the optimal correct program is derived from an optimal strategy in
the corresponding quantitative game. We prove that the respective game problems
are computationally expensive (NP-complete), and present several techniques that
overcome the theoretical difficulty in cases of concurrent programs of practical
interest.\r\n\r\nWe have implemented a prototype tool and used it for the automatic
syn- thesis of programs that access a concurrent list. For certain parameter val-
ues, our method automatically synthesizes various classical synchronization schemes
for implementing a concurrent list, such as fine-grained locking or a lazy algorithm.
For other parameter values, a new, hybrid synchronization style is synthesized,
which uses both the lazy approach and coarse-grained locks (instead of standard
fine-grained locks). The trade-off occurs because while fine-grained locking tends
to decrease the cost that is due to waiting for locks, it increases cache size
requirements."

text: Boolean notions of correctness are formalized by preorders on systems. Quantitative
measures of correctness can be formalized by real-valued distance functions between
systems, where the distance between implementation and specification provides
a measure of “fit” or “desirability.” We extend the simulation preorder to the
quantitative setting, by making each player of a simulation game pay a certain
price for her choices. We use the resulting games with quantitative objectives
to define three different simulation distances. The correctness distance measures
how much the specification must be changed in order to be satisfied by the implementation.
The coverage distance measures how much the im- plementation restricts the degrees
of freedom offered by the specification. The robustness distance measures how
much a system can deviate from the implementation description without violating
the specification. We consider these distances for safety as well as liveness
specifications. The distances can be computed in polynomial time for safety specifications,
and for liveness specifications given by weak fairness constraints. We show that
the distance functions satisfy the triangle inequality, that the distance between
two systems does not increase under parallel composition with a third system,
and that the distance between two systems can be bounded from above and below
by distances between abstractions of the two systems. These properties suggest
that our simulation distances provide an appropriate basis for a quantitative
theory of discrete systems. We also demonstrate how the robustness distance can
be used to measure how many transmission errors are tolerated by error correcting
codes.

text: Concurrent data structures with fine-grained synchronization are notoriously
difficult to implement correctly. The difficulty of reasoning about these implementations
does not stem from the number of variables or the program size, but rather from
the large number of possible interleavings. These implementations are therefore
prime candidates for model checking. We introduce an algorithm for verifying linearizability
of singly-linked heap-based concurrent data structures. We consider a model consisting
of an unbounded heap where each node consists an element from an unbounded data
domain, with a restricted set of operations for testing and updating pointers
and data elements. Our main result is that linearizability is decidable for programs
that invoke a fixed number of methods, possibly in parallel. This decidable fragment
covers many of the common implementation techniques — fine-grained locking, lazy
synchronization, and lock-free synchronization. We also show how the technique
can be used to verify optimistic implementations with the help of programmer annotations.
We developed a verification tool CoLT and evaluated it on a representative sample
of Java implementations of the concurrent set data structure. The tool verified
linearizability of a number of implementations, found a known error in a lock-free
imple- mentation and proved that the corrected version is linearizable.

text: The class of ω regular languages provide a robust specification language in
verification. Every ω-regular condition can be decomposed into a safety part and
a liveness part. The liveness part ensures that something good happens “eventually.”
Two main strengths of the classical, infinite-limit formulation of liveness are
robustness (independence from the granularity of transitions) and simplicity (abstraction
of complicated time bounds). However, the classical liveness formulation suffers
from the drawback that the time until something good happens may be unbounded.
A stronger formulation of liveness, so-called finitary liveness, overcomes this
drawback, while still retaining robustness and simplicity. Finitary liveness requires
that there exists an unknown, fixed bound b such that something good happens within
b transitions. In this work we consider the finitary parity and Streett (fairness)
conditions. We present the topological, automata-theoretic and logical characterization
of finitary languages defined by finitary parity and Streett conditions. We (a)
show that the finitary parity and Streett languages are Σ2-complete; (b) present
a complete characterization of the expressive power of various classes of automata
with finitary and infinitary conditions (in particular we show that non-deterministic
finitary parity and Streett automata cannot be determinized to deterministic finitary
parity or Streett automata); and (c) show that the languages defined by non-deterministic
finitary parity automata exactly characterize the star-free fragment of ωB-regular
languages.
