Time-Constrained Temporal Logic Control of Multi-Affine Systems
In this paper, we consider the problem of controlling a dynamical system such
that its trajectories satisfy a temporal logic property in a given amount of
time. We focus on multi-affine systems and specifications given as
syntactically co-safe linear temporal logic formulas over rectangular regions
in the state space. The proposed algorithm is based on the estimation of time
bounds for facet reachability problems and solving a time optimal reachability
problem on the product between a weighted transition system and an automaton
that enforces the satisfaction of the specification. A random optimization
algorithm is used to iteratively improve the solution
Optimal infinite scheduling for multi-priced timed automata
This paper is concerned with the derivation of infinite schedules for timed automata that are in some sense optimal. To cover a wide class of optimality criteria we start out by introducing an extension of the (priced) timed automata model that includes both costs and rewards as separate modelling features. A precise definition is then given of what constitutes optimal infinite behaviours for this class of models. We subsequently show that the derivation of optimal non-terminating schedules for such double-priced timed automata is computable. This is done by a reduction of the problem to the determination of optimal mean-cycles in finite graphs with weighted edges. This reduction is obtained by introducing the so-called corner-point abstraction, a powerful abstraction technique of which we show that it preserves optimal schedules
Two-Player Reachability-Price Games on Single-Clock Timed Automata
We study two player reachability-price games on single-clock timed automata.
The problem is as follows: given a state of the automaton, determine whether
the first player can guarantee reaching one of the designated goal locations.
If a goal location can be reached then we also want to compute the optimum
price of doing so. Our contribution is twofold. First, we develop a theory of
cost functions, which provide a comprehensive methodology for the analysis of
this problem. This theory allows us to establish our second contribution, an
EXPTIME algorithm for computing the optimum reachability price, which improves
the existing 3EXPTIME upper bound.Comment: In Proceedings QAPL 2011, arXiv:1107.074
