Paper accepted at FM 2023: Energy Problems in Finite and Timed Automata with Büchi Conditions

We are happy to announce that the following article has been accepted at the he 25th International Symposium on Formal Methods (FM 2023) to be held in Lübeck in March 2023: Energy Problems in Finite and Timed Automata with Büchi Conditions Sven Dziadek, Uli Fahrenberg and Philipp Schlehuber-Caissier Abstract: We show how to efficiently solve energy Büchi problems in finite weighted Büchi automata and in one-clock weighted timed Büchi automata; all our algorithms are implemented in a pipeline based on TChecker and Spot. Solving the latter problem is done by using the corner-point abstraction; the former problem is handled by a modified version of Bellman-Ford interleaved with Couvreur's algorithm.

We are happy to announce that the following article has been accepted at Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency (PETRI NETS): A Myhill-Nerode Theorem for Higher-Dimensional Automata Uli Fahrenberg, Krzysztof Ziemiański Abstract: We establish a Myhill-Nerode type theorem for higher-dimensional automata (HDAs), stating that a language is regular precisely if it has finite prefix quotient. HDAs extend standard automata with additional structure, making it possible to distinguish between interleavings and concurrency. We also introduce deterministic HDAs and show that not all HDAs are determinizable, that is, there exist regular languages that cannot be recognised by a deterministic HDA. Using our theorem, we develop an internal characterisation of deterministic languages. The paper is available at https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.08298
