text: Depth-Bounded Systems form an expressive class of well-structured transition
systems. They can model a wide range of concurrent infinite-state systems including
those with dynamic thread creation, dynamically changing communication topology,
and complex shared heap structures. We present the first method to automatically
prove fair termination of depth-bounded systems. Our method uses a numerical abstraction
of the system, which we obtain by systematically augmenting an over-approximation
of the system’s reachable states with a finite set of counters. This numerical
abstraction can be analyzed with existing termination provers. What makes our
approach unique is the way in which it exploits the well-structuredness of the
analyzed system. We have implemented our work in a prototype tool and used it
to automatically prove liveness properties of complex concurrent systems, including
nonblocking algorithms such as Treiber’s stack and several distributed processes.
Many of these examples are beyond the scope of termination analyses that are based
on traditional counter abstractions.

text: We develop program synthesis techniques that can help programmers fix concurrency-related
bugs. We make two new contributions to synthesis for concurrency, the first improving
the efficiency of the synthesized code, and the second improving the efficiency
of the synthesis procedure itself. The first contribution is to have the synthesis
procedure explore a variety of (sequential) semantics-preserving program transformations.
Classically, only one such transformation has been considered, namely, the insertion
of synchronization primitives (such as locks). Based on common manual bug-fixing
techniques used by Linux device-driver developers, we explore additional, more
efficient transformations, such as the reordering of independent instructions.
The second contribution is to speed up the counterexample-guided removal of concurrency
bugs within the synthesis procedure by considering partial-order traces (instead
of linear traces) as counterexamples. A partial-order error trace represents a
set of linear (interleaved) traces of a concurrent program all of which lead to
the same error. By eliminating a partial-order error trace, we eliminate in a
single iteration of the synthesis procedure all linearizations of the partial-order
trace. We evaluated our techniques on several simplified examples of real concurrency
bugs that occurred in Linux device drivers.

text: 'Software model checking, as an undecidable problem, has three possible outcomes:
(1) the program satisfies the specification, (2) the program does not satisfy
the specification, and (3) the model checker fails. The third outcome usually
manifests itself in a space-out, time-out, or one component of the verification
tool giving up; in all of these failing cases, significant computation is performed
by the verification tool before the failure, but no result is reported. We propose
to reformulate the model-checking problem as follows, in order to have the verification
tool report a summary of the performed work even in case of failure: given a program
and a specification, the model checker returns a condition Ψ - usually a state
predicate - such that the program satisfies the specification under the condition
Ψ - that is, as long as the program does not leave the states in which Ψ is satisfied.
In our experiments, we investigated as one major application of conditional model
checking the sequential combination of model checkers with information passing.
We give the condition that one model checker produces, as input to a second conditional
model checker, such that the verification problem for the second is restricted
to the part of the state space that is not covered by the condition, i.e., the
second model checker works on the problems that the first model checker could
not solve. Our experiments demonstrate that repeated application of conditional
model checkers, passing information from one model checker to the next, can significantly
improve the verification results and performance, i.e., we can now verify programs
that we could not verify before.'

text: 'We introduce propagation models (PMs), a formalism able to express several
kinds of equations that describe the behavior of biochemical reaction networks.
Furthermore, we introduce the propagation abstract data type (PADT), which separates
concerns regarding different numerical algorithms for the transient analysis of
biochemical reaction networks from concerns regarding their implementation, thus
allowing for portable and efficient solutions. The state of a propagation abstract
data type is given by a vector that assigns mass values to a set of nodes, and
its (next) operator propagates mass values through this set of nodes. We propose
an approximate implementation of the (next) operator, based on threshold abstraction,
which propagates only "significant" mass values and thus achieves a
compromise between efficiency and accuracy. Finally, we give three use cases for
propagation models: the chemical master equation (CME), the reaction rate equation
(RRE), and a hybrid method that combines these two equations. These three applications
use propagation models in order to propagate probabilities and/or expected values
and variances of the model''s variables.'

text: We study evolutionary game theory in a setting where individuals learn from
each other. We extend the traditional approach by assuming that a population contains
individuals with different learning abilities. In particular, we explore the situation
where individuals have different search spaces, when attempting to learn the strategies
of others. The search space of an individual specifies the set of strategies learnable
by that individual. The search space is genetically given and does not change
under social evolutionary dynamics. We introduce a general framework and study
a specific example in the context of direct reciprocity. For this example, we
obtain the counter intuitive result that cooperation can only evolve for intermediate
benefit-to-cost ratios, while small and large benefit-to-cost ratios favor defection.
Our paper is a step toward making a connection between computational learning
theory and evolutionary game dynamics.

text: "Quantitative automata are nondeterministic finite automata with edge weights.
They value a\r\nrun by some function from the sequence of visited weights to the
reals, and value a word by its\r\nminimal/maximal run. They generalize boolean
automata, and have gained much attention in\r\nrecent years. Unfortunately, important
automaton classes, such as sum, discounted-sum, and\r\nlimit-average automata,
cannot be determinized. Yet, the quantitative setting provides the potential\r\nof
approximate determinization. We define approximate determinization with respect
to\r\na distance function, and investigate this potential.\r\nWe show that sum
automata cannot be determinized approximately with respect to any\r\ndistance
function. However, restricting to nonnegative weights allows for approximate determinization\r\nwith
respect to some distance functions.\r\nDiscounted-sum automata allow for approximate
determinization, as the influence of a word’s\r\nsuffix is decaying. However,
the naive approach, of unfolding the automaton computations up\r\nto a sufficient
level, is shown to be doubly exponential in the discount factor. We provide an\r\nalternative
construction that is singly exponential in the discount factor, in the precision,
and\r\nin the number of states. We prove matching lower bounds, showing exponential
dependency on\r\neach of these three parameters.\r\nAverage and limit-average
automata are shown to prohibit approximate determinization with\r\nrespect to
any distance function, and this is the case even for two weights, 0 and 1."
acknowledgement: We thank Laurent Doyen for great ideas and valuable help in analyzing
discounted-sum automata.

text: 'Systems are often specified using multiple requirements on their behavior.
In practice, these requirements can be contradictory. The classical approach to
specification, verification, and synthesis demands more detailed specifications
that resolve any contradictions in the requirements. These detailed specifications
are usually large, cumbersome, and hard to maintain or modify. In contrast, quantitative
frameworks allow the formalization of the intuitive idea that what is desired
is an implementation that comes "closest" to satisfying the mutually
incompatible requirements, according to a measure of fit that can be defined by
the requirements engineer. One flexible framework for quantifying how "well"
an implementation satisfies a specification is offered by simulation distances
that are parameterized by an error model. We introduce this framework, study its
properties, and provide an algorithmic solution for the following quantitative
synthesis question: given two (or more) behavioral requirements specified by possibly
incompatible finite-state machines, and an error model, find the finite-state
implementation that minimizes the maximal simulation distance to the given requirements.
Furthermore, we generalize the framework to handle infinite alphabets (for example,
realvalued domains). We also demonstrate how quantitative specifications based
on simulation distances might lead to smaller and easier to modify specifications.
Finally, we illustrate our approach using case studies on error correcting codes
and scheduler synthesis.'

text: Formal verification aims to improve the quality of hardware and software by
detecting errors before they do harm. At the basis of formal verification lies
the logical notion of correctness, which purports to capture whether or not a
circuit or program behaves as desired. We suggest that the boolean partition into
correct and incorrect systems falls short of the practical need to assess the
behavior of hardware and software in a more nuanced fashion against multiple criteria.

text: The classical (boolean) notion of refinement for behavioral interfaces of
system components is the alternating refinement preorder. In this paper, we define
a quantitative measure for interfaces, called interface simulation distance. It
makes the alternating refinement preorder quantitative by, intu- itively, tolerating
errors (while counting them) in the alternating simulation game. We show that
the interface simulation distance satisfies the triangle inequality, that the
distance between two interfaces does not increase under parallel composition with
a third interface, and that the distance between two interfaces can be bounded
from above and below by distances between abstractions of the two interfaces.
We illustrate the framework, and the properties of the distances under composition
of interfaces, with two case studies.

text: The notion of delays arises naturally in many computational models, such as,
in the design of circuits, control systems, and dataflow languages. In this work,
we introduce automata with delay blocks (ADBs), extending finite state automata
with variable time delay blocks, for deferring individual transition output symbols,
in a discrete-time setting. We show that the ADB languages strictly subsume the
regular languages, and are incomparable in expressive power to the context-free
languages. We show that ADBs are closed under union, concatenation and Kleene
star, and under intersection with regular languages, but not closed under complementation
and intersection with other ADB languages. We show that the emptiness and the
membership problems are decidable in polynomial time for ADBs, whereas the universality
problem is undecidable. Finally we consider the linear-time model checking problem,
i.e., whether the language of an ADB is contained in a regular language, and show
that the model checking problem is PSPACE-complete. Copyright 2012 ACM.

text: Interface theories provide a formal framework for component-based development
of software and hardware which supports the incremental design of systems and
the independent implementability of components. These capabilities are ensured
through mathematical properties of the parallel composition operator and the refinement
relation for components. More recently, a conjunction operation was added to interface
theories in order to provide support for handling multiple viewpoints, requirements
engineering, and component reuse. Unfortunately, the conjunction operator does
not allow independent implementability in general. In this paper, we study conditions
that need to be imposed on interface models in order to enforce independent implementability
with respect to conjunction. We focus on multiple viewpoint specifications and
propose a new compatibility criterion between two interfaces, which we call orthogonality.
We show that orthogonal interfaces can be refined separately, while preserving
both orthogonality and composability with other interfaces. We illustrate the
independent implementability of different viewpoints with a FIFO buffer example.

text: 'Continuous-time Markov chains (CTMC) with their rich theory and efficient
simulation algorithms have been successfully used in modeling stochastic processes
in diverse areas such as computer science, physics, and biology. However, systems
that comprise non-instantaneous events cannot be accurately and efficiently modeled
with CTMCs. In this paper we define delayed CTMCs, an extension of CTMCs that
allows for the specification of a lower bound on the time interval between an
event''s initiation and its completion, and we propose an algorithm for the computation
of their behavior. Our algorithm effectively decomposes the computation into two
stages: a pure CTMC governs event initiations while a deterministic process guarantees
lower bounds on event completion times. Furthermore, from the nature of delayed
CTMCs, we obtain a parallelized version of our algorithm. We use our formalism
to model genetic regulatory circuits (biological systems where delayed events
are common) and report on the results of our numerical algorithm as run on a cluster.
We compare performance and accuracy of our results with results obtained by using
pure CTMCs. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.'

text: Given a dense-time real-valued signal and a parameterized temporal logic formula
with both magnitude and timing parameters, we compute the subset of the parameter
space that renders the formula satisfied by the trace. We provide two preliminary
implementations, one which follows the exact semantics and attempts to compute
the validity domain by quantifier elimination in linear arithmetics and one which
conducts adaptive search in the parameter space.

text: We describe a framework for reasoning about programs with lists carrying integer
numerical data. We use abstract domains to describe and manipulate complex constraints
on configurations of these programs mixing constraints on the shape of the heap,
sizes of the lists, on the multisets of data stored in these lists, and on the
data at their different positions. Moreover, we provide powerful techniques for
automatic validation of Hoare-triples and invariant checking, as well as for automatic
synthesis of invariants and procedure summaries using modular inter-procedural
analysis. The approach has been implemented in a tool called Celia and experimented
successfully on a large benchmark of programs.

text: The induction of a signaling pathway is characterized by transient complex
formation and mutual posttranslational modification of proteins. To faithfully
capture this combinatorial process in a mathematical model is an important challenge
in systems biology. Exploiting the limited context on which most binding and modification
events are conditioned, attempts have been made to reduce the combinatorial complexity
by quotienting the reachable set of molecular species into species aggregates
while preserving the deterministic semantics of the thermodynamic limit. Recently,
we proposed a quotienting that also preserves the stochastic semantics and that
is complete in the sense that the semantics of individual species can be recovered
from the aggregate semantics. In this paper, we prove that this quotienting yields
a sufficient condition for weak lumpability (that is to say that the quotient
system is still Markovian for a given set of initial distributions) and that it
gives rise to a backward Markov bisimulation between the original and aggregated
transition system (which means that the conditional probability of being in a
given state in the original system knowing that we are in its equivalence class
is an invariant of the system). We illustrate the framework on a case study of
the epidermal growth factor (EGF)/insulin receptor crosstalk.

text: We summarize classical and recent results about two-player games played on
graphs with ω-regular objectives. These games have applications in the verification
and synthesis of reactive systems. Important distinctions are whether a graph
game is turn-based or concurrent; deterministic or stochastic; zero-sum or not.
We cluster known results and open problems according to these classifications.

text: 'We consider two-player zero-sum stochastic games on graphs with ω-regular
winning conditions specified as parity objectives. These games have applications
in the design and control of reactive systems. We survey the complexity results
for the problem of deciding the winner in such games, and in classes of interest
obtained as special cases, based on the information and the power of randomization
available to the players, on the class of objectives and on the winning mode.
On the basis of information, these games can be classified as follows: (a) partial-observation
(both players have partial view of the game); (b) one-sided partial-observation
(one player has partial-observation and the other player has complete-observation);
and (c) complete-observation (both players have complete view of the game). The
one-sided partial-observation games have two important subclasses: the one-player
games, known as partial-observation Markov decision processes (POMDPs), and the
blind one-player games, known as probabilistic automata. On the basis of randomization,
(a) the players may not be allowed to use randomization (pure strategies), or
(b) they may choose a probability distribution over actions but the actual random
choice is external and not visible to the player (actions invisible), or (c) they
may use full randomization. Finally, various classes of games are obtained by
restricting the parity objective to a reachability, safety, Büchi, or coBüchi
condition. We also consider several winning modes, such as sure-winning (i.e.,
all outcomes of a strategy have to satisfy the winning condition), almost-sure
winning (i.e., winning with probability 1), limit-sure winning (i.e., winning
with probability arbitrarily close to 1), and value-threshold winning (i.e., winning
with probability at least ν, where ν is a given rational). '

text: 'We propose synchronous interfaces, a new interface theory for discrete-time
systems. We use an application to time-triggered scheduling to drive the design
choices for our formalism; in particular, additionally to deriving useful mathematical
properties, we focus on providing a syntax which is adapted to natural high-level
system modeling. As a result, we develop an interface model that relies on a guarded-command
based language and is equipped with shared variables and explicit discrete-time
clocks. We define all standard interface operations: compatibility checking, composition,
refinement, and shared refinement. Apart from the synchronous interface model,
the contribution of this paper is the establishment of a formal relation between
interface theories and real-time scheduling, where we demonstrate a fully automatic
framework for the incremental computation of time-triggered schedules.'

text: Hierarchical Timing Language (HTL) is a coordination language for distributed,
hard real-time applications. HTL is a hierarchical extension of Giotto and, like
its predecessor, based on the logical execution time (LET) paradigm of real-time
programming. Giotto is compiled into code for a virtual machine, called the EmbeddedMachine
(or E machine). If HTL is targeted to the E machine, then the hierarchicalprogram
structure needs to be flattened; the flattening makes separatecompilation difficult,
and may result in E machinecode of exponential size. In this paper, we propose
a generalization of the E machine, which supports a hierarchicalprogram structure
at runtime through real-time trigger mechanisms that are arranged in a tree. We
present the generalized E machine, and a modular compiler for HTL that generates
code of linear size. The compiler may generate code for any part of a given HTL
program separately in any order.

text: For programs whose data variables range over Boolean or finite domains, program
verification is decidable, and this forms the basis of recent tools for software
model checking. In this article, we consider algorithmic verification of programs
that use Boolean variables, and in addition, access a single read-only array whose
length is potentially unbounded, and whose elements range over an unbounded data
domain. We show that the reachability problem, while undecidable in general, is
(1) PSPACE-complete for programs in which the array-accessing for-loops are not
nested, (2) decidable for a restricted class of programs with doubly nested loops.
The second result establishes connections to automata and logics defining languages
over data words.
