Graph games and reactive synthesis

R Bloem, K Chatterjee, B Jobstmann - Handbook of model checking, 2018 - Springer
Graph-based games are an important tool in computer science. They have applications in
synthesis, verification, refinement, and far beyond. We review graph-based games with …

Automatic verification of competitive stochastic systems

T Chen, V Forejt, M Kwiatkowska, D Parker… - Formal Methods in …, 2013 - Springer
We present automatic verification techniques for the modelling and analysis of probabilistic
systems that incorporate competitive behaviour. These systems are modelled as turn-based …

Verification and control of partially observable probabilistic systems

G Norman, D Parker, X Zou - Real-Time Systems, 2017 - Springer
We present automated techniques for the verification and control of partially observable,
probabilistic systems for both discrete and dense models of time. For the discrete-time case …

Quantitative analysis of smart contracts

K Chatterjee, AK Goharshady, Y Velner - European Symposium on …, 2018 - Springer
Smart contracts are computer programs that are executed by a network of mutually
distrusting agents, without the need of an external trusted authority. Smart contracts handle …

[PDF][PDF] Parameter synthesis in Markov models

S Junges - 2020 - publications.rwth-aachen.de
Markov models comprise states with probabilistic transitions. The analysis of these models is
ubiquitous and studied in, among others, reliability engineering, artificial intelligence …

[HTML][HTML] What is decidable about partially observable Markov decision processes with ω-regular objectives

K Chatterjee, M Chmelik, M Tracol - Journal of Computer and System …, 2016 - Elsevier
We consider partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) with ω-regular
conditions specified as parity objectives. The class of ω-regular languages provides a robust …

Resource-guided program synthesis

Verification of indefinite-horizon POMDPs

A Bork, S Junges, JP Katoen, T Quatmann - International Symposium on …, 2020 - Springer
The verification problem in MDPs asks whether, for any policy resolving the nondeterminism,
the probability that something bad happens is bounded by some given threshold. This …
