Stochastic DES Fault Diagnosis with Coloured Interpreted Petri Nets

[EN] This proposal presents an online method to detect and isolate faults in stochastic discrete event systems without previous model. A coloured timed interpreted Petri Net generates the normal behavior language after an identification stage.The next step is fault detection that is carried out by comparing the observed event sequences with the expected event sequences. Once a new fault is detected, a learning algorithm changes the structure of the diagnoser, so it is able to learn new fault languages. Moreover, the diagnoser includes timed events to represent and diagnose stochastic languages. Finally, this paper proposes a detectability condition for stochastic DES and the sufficient and necessary conditions are proved.This work was supported by a grant from the Universidad del Cauca, Reference 2.3-31.2/05 2011.Muñoz-Añasco, DM.; Correcher Salvador, A.; García Moreno, E.; Morant Anglada, FJ.

A new approach for diagnosability analysis of Petri nets using Verifier Nets

In this paper, we analyze the diagnosability properties of labeled Petri nets. We consider the standard notion of diagnosability of languages, requiring that every occurrence of an unobservable fault event be eventually detected, as well as the stronger notion of diagnosability in K steps, where the detection must occur within a fixed bound of K event occurrences after the fault. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for these two notions of diagnosability for both bounded and unbounded Petri nets and then present an algorithmic technique for testing the conditions based on linear programming. Our approach is novel and based on the analysis of the reachability/coverability graph of a special Petri net, called Verifier Net, that is built from the Petri net model of the given system. In the case of systems that are diagnosable in K steps, we give a procedure to compute the bound K. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that necessary and sufficient conditions for diagnosability and diagnosability in K steps of labeled unbounded Petri nets are presented

Identification of Stochastic Timed Discrete Event Systems with st-IPN

[EN] This paper presents amethod for the identification of stochastic timed discrete event systems, based on the analysis of the behavior of the input and output signals, arranged in a timeline. To achieve this goal stochastic timed interpreted Petri nets are defined.These nets link timed discrete event systems modelling with stochastic time modelling. The procedure starts with the observation of the input/output signals; these signals are converted into events, so that the sequence of events is the observed language. This language arrives to an identifier that builds a stochastic timed interpreted Petri net which generates the same language. The identified model is a deterministic generator of the observed language.The identification method also includes an algorithm that determines when the identification process is over.This work was supported by a Grant from the Universidad del Cauca, reference 2.3-31.2/05 2011.Muñoz-Añasco, DM.; Correcher Salvador, A.; García Moreno, E.; Morant Anglada, FJ.

Fault detection for discrete event systems using Petri nets with unobservable transitions

In this paper we present a fault detection approach for discrete event systems using Petri nets. We assume that some of the transitions of the net are unobservable, including all those transitions that model faulty behaviors. Our diagnosis approach is based on the notions of basis marking and justification, that allow us to characterize the set of markings that are consistent with the actual observation, and the set of unobservable transitions whose firing enable it. This approach applies to all net systems whose unobservable subnet is acyclic. If the net system is also bounded the proposed approach may be significantly simplified by moving the most burdensome part of the procedure off-line, thanks to the construction of a graph, called the basis reachability graph

Diagnosability of discrete event systems using labeled Petri nets

In this paper, we focus on labeled Petri nets with silent transitions that may either correspond to fault events or to regular unobservable events. We address the problem of deriving a procedure to determine if a given net system is diagnosable, i.e., the occurrence of a fault event may be detected for sure after a finite observation. The proposed procedure is based on our previous results on the diagnosis of discrete-event systems modeled with labeled Petri nets, whose key notions are those of basis markings and minimal explanations, and is inspired by the diagnosability approach for finite state automata proposed by Sampath in 1995. In particular, we first give necessary and sufficient conditions for diagnosability. Then, we present a method to test diagnosability that is based on the analysis of two graphs that depend on the structure of the net, including the faults model, and the initial marking

Online Diagnosis based on Chronicle Recognition of a Coil Winding Machine

This paper falls under the problems of the diagnosis of Discrete Event System (DES) such as coil winding machine. Among the various techniques used for the on-line diagnosis, we are interested in the chronicle recognition and fault tree. The Chronicle can be defined as temporal patterns that represent system possible evolutions of an observed system. Starting from the model of the system to be diagnosed, the proposed method based on the P-time Petri net allows to generate the chronicles necessary to the diagnosis. Finally, to demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the monitoring approach, an application to a coil winding unit is outlined

INCREMENTAL FAULT DIAGNOSABILITY AND SECURITY/PRIVACY VERIFICATION

Dynamical systems can be classified into two groups. One group is continuoustime systems that describe the physical system behavior, and therefore are typically modeled by differential equations. The other group is discrete event systems (DES)s that represent the sequential and logical behavior of a system. DESs are therefore modeled by discrete state/event models.DESs are widely used for formal verification and enforcement of desired behaviors in embedded systems. Such systems are naturally prone to faults, and the knowledge about each single fault is crucial from safety and economical point of view. Fault diagnosability verification, which is the ability to deduce about the occurrence of all failures, is one of the problems that is investigated in this thesis. Another verification problem that is addressed in this thesis is security/privacy. The two notions currentstate opacity and current-state anonymity that lie within this category, have attracted great attention in recent years, due to the progress of communication networks and mobile devices.Usually, DESs are modular and consist of interacting subsystems. The interaction is achieved by means of synchronous composition of these components. This synchronization results in large monolithic models of the total DES. Also, the complex computations, related to each specific verification problem, add even more computational complexity, resulting in the well-known state-space explosion problem.To circumvent the state-space explosion problem, one efficient approach is to exploit the modular structure of systems and apply incremental abstraction. In this thesis, a unified abstraction method that preserves temporal logic properties and possible silent loops is presented. The abstraction method is incrementally applied on the local subsystems, and it is proved that this abstraction preserves the main characteristics of the system that needs to be verified.The existence of shared unobservable events means that ordinary incremental abstraction does not work for security/privacy verification of modular DESs. To solve this problem, a combined incremental abstraction and observer generation is proposed and analyzed. Evaluations show the great impact of the proposed incremental abstraction on diagnosability and security/privacy verification, as well as verification of generic safety and liveness properties. Thus, this incremental strategy makes formal verification of large complex systems feasible
