Résumé

A channel machine consists of a finite controller together with several fifo channels; the controller can read messages from the head of a channel and write messages to the tail of a channel. In this paper we focus on channel machines with insertion errors, i.e., machines in whose channels messages can spontaneously appear. We consider the invariance problem: does a given insertion channel machine have an infinite computation all of whose configurations satisfy a given predicate? We show that this problem is primitive-recursive if the predicate is closed under message losses. We also give a non-elementary lower bound for the invariance problem under this restriction. Finally, using the previous result, we show that the satisfiability problem for the safety fragment of Metric Temporal Logic is non-elementary.

Résumé

We consider concurrent games played on graphs, in which each player has several qualitative (e.g. reachability or Büchi) objectives, and a preorder on these objectives (for instance the counting order, where the aim is to maximise the number of objectives that are fulfilled).

We study two fundamental problems in that setting: (1) the value problem, which aims at deciding the existence of a strategy that ensures a given payoff; (2) the Nash equilibrium problem, where we want to decide the existence of a Nash equilibrium (possibly with a condition on the payoffs). We characterise the exact complexities of these problems for several relevant preorders, and several kinds of objectives.

Résumé

We investigate a number of problems related to infinite runs of weighted timed automata, subject to lower-bound constraints on the accumulated weight. Closing an open problem from [Bouyer et al., "Infinite runs in weighted timed automata with energy constraints", FORMATS'08], we show that the existence of an infinite lower-bound-constrained run is—for us somewhat unexpectedly—undecidable for weighted timed automata with four or more clocks.

This undecidability result assumes a fixed and know initial credit. We show that the related problem of existence of an initial credit for which there ex- ist a feasible run is decidable in PSPACE. We also investigate the variant of these problems where only bounded-duration runs are considered, showing that this restriction makes our original problem decidable in NEXPTIME. Finally, we prove that the universal versions of all those problems (i.e, checking that all the considered runs satisfy the lower-bound constraint) are decidable in PSPACE.

Résumé

Reachability checking is one of the most basic problems in verification. By solving this problem, one synthesizes a strategy that dictates the actions to be performed for ensuring that the target location is reached. In this work, we are interested in synthesizing "robust" strategies for ensuring reachability of a location in a timed automaton; with "robust", we mean that it must still ensure reachability even when the delays are perturbed by the environment. We model this perturbed semantics as a game between the controller and its environment, and solve the parameterized robust reachability problem: we show that the existence of an upper bound on the perturbations under which there is a strategy reaching a target location is EXPTIME-complete.

Résumé

While it was defined long ago, the extension of CTL with quantification over atomic propositions has never been studied extensively. Considering two different semantics (depending whether propositional quantification refers to the Kripke structure or to its unwinding tree), we study its expressiveness (showing in particular that QCTL coincides with Monadic Second-Order Logic for both semantics) and characterize the complexity of its model-checking problem, depending on the number of nested propositional quantifiers (showing that the structure semantics populates the polynomial hierarchy while the tree semantics populates the exponential hierarchy). We also show how these results apply to model checking ATL-like temporal logics for games.

Résumé

The popularization of geographical position devices (e.g. GPS) creates new opportunities for analyzing behavior of moving objects. However, such analysis are hindered by a lack of semantic information associated to the basic information provided by GPS. Previous works propose semantic enrichment of trajectories. Through the semantic enrichment, we could check which trajectories have a given moving sequence in an application. Often, this sequence is expressed according to the semantic application, using the approach of semantic trajectories proposed in the literature. This trajectory can be represented as a sequence of predicates that holds in some time interval. However, the solutions for querying moving sequence proposed by previous works have a high computational cost. In this paper, we propose an expressive query language to semantic trajectories that allows temporal constraints. To evaluate a query we will use model checking based on timed automata, that can be performed in polynomial time. As this model checking algorithm is not implemented yet, we propose to use UPPAAL tool, that can be more expensive theoretically, but we expected that will be ecient for our approach. In addition, we will present a query example that demonstrates the expressive power of our language. Although in this paper we will focus on semantic trajectories data, our approach is general enough for being applied to other purposes.
