text: As hybrid systems involve continuous behaviors, they should be evaluated by
quantitative methods, rather than qualitative methods. In this paper we adapt
a quantitative framework, called model measuring, to the hybrid systems domain.
The model-measuring problem asks, given a model M and a specification, what is
the maximal distance such that all models within that distance from M satisfy
(or violate) the specification. A distance function on models is given as part
of the input of the problem. Distances, especially related to continuous behaviors
are more natural in the hybrid case than the discrete case. We are interested
in distances represented by monotonic hybrid automata, a hybrid counterpart of
(discrete) weighted automata, whose recognized timed languages are monotone (w.r.t.
inclusion) in the values of parameters.The contributions of this paper are twofold.
First, we give sufficient conditions under which the model-measuring problem can
be solved. Second, we discuss the modeling of distances and applications of the
model-measuring problem.

text: 'Recently there has been a significant effort to add 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, several basic system properties such as average
response time cannot be expressed with weighted automata. In this work, we introduce
nested weighted automata as a new formalism for expressing important quantitative
properties such as average response time. We establish an almost complete decidability
picture for the basic decision problems for nested weighted automata, and illustrate
its applicability in several domains. '

text: While fixing concurrency bugs, program repair algorithms may introduce new
concurrency bugs. We present an algorithm that avoids such regressions. The solution
space is given by a set of program transformations we consider in the repair process.
These include reordering of instructions within a thread and inserting atomic
sections. The new algorithm learns a constraint on the space of candidate solutions,
from both positive examples (error-free traces) and counterexamples (error traces).
From each counterexample, the algorithm learns a constraint necessary to remove
the errors. From each positive examples, it learns a constraint that is necessary
in order to prevent the repair from turning the trace into an error trace. We
implemented the algorithm and evaluated it on simplified Linux device drivers
with known bugs.

text: Model-based testing is a promising technology for black-box software and hardware
testing, in which test cases are generated automatically from high-level specifications.
Nowadays, systems typically consist of multiple interacting components and, due
to their complexity, testing presents a considerable portion of the effort and
cost in the design process. Exploiting the compositional structure of system specifications
can considerably reduce the effort in model-based testing. Moreover, inferring
properties about the system from testing its individual components allows the
designer to reduce the amount of integration testing. In this paper, we study
compositional properties of the ioco-testing theory. We propose a new approach
to composition and hiding operations, inspired by contract-based design and interface
theories. These operations preserve behaviors that are compatible under composition
and hiding, and prune away incompatible ones. The resulting specification characterizes
the input sequences for which the unit testing of components is sufficient to
infer the correctness of component integration without the need for further tests.
We provide a methodology that uses these results to minimize integration testing
effort, but also to detect potential weaknesses in specifications. While we focus
on asynchronous models and the ioco conformance relation, the resulting methodology
can be applied to a broader class of systems.

text: We consider Markov decision processes (MDPs) which are a standard model for
probabilistic systems.We focus on qualitative properties forMDPs 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 ofMDPs with respect to qualitative properties, and present
discrete graph theoretic algorithms with quadratic complexity to compute the simulation
relation.We present an automated technique for assume-guarantee style reasoning
for compositional analysis ofMDPs with qualitative properties by giving a counterexample
guided abstraction-refinement approach to compute our new simulation relation.
We have implemented our algorithms and show that the compositional analysis leads
to significant improvements.
