Paper published in Information & Computation

by Uli Fahrenberg

The following paper has been published in Information & Computation: Posets With Interfaces as a Model for Concurrency Uli Fahrenberg, Christian Johansen, Georg Struth, Krzysztof Ziemiański We introduce posets with interfaces (iposets) and generalise their standard serial composition to a new gluing composition. In the partial order semantics of concurrency, interfaces and gluing allow modelling events that extend in time and across components. Alternativelytaking a decompositional view, interfaces allow cutting through events, while serial composition may only cut through edges of a poset. We show that iposets under gluing composition form a category, which generalises the monoid of posets under serial composition up to isomorphism. They form a 2-category when a subsumption order and a lax tensor in the form of a non-commutative parallel composition are added, which generalises the interchange monoids used for modelling series-parallel posets. We also study the gluing-parallel hierarchy of iposets, which generalises the standard series-parallel one. The class of gluing-parallel iposets contains that of series-parallel posets and the class of interval orders, which are well studied in concurrency theory, too. We also show that it is strictly contained in the class of all iposets by identifying several forbidden substructures. https://www.lrde.epita.fr/wiki/Publications/fahrenberg.22.iandc

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

by Uli Fahrenberg

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. The paper is available at https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.04392

LITES Journal Special Issue on Distributed Hybrid Systems

by Uli Fahrenberg

I am happy to announce the appearance today of a special issue of the Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems dedicated to distributed hybrid systems and edited by Alessandro Abate, Martin Fränzle and myself: https://ojs.dagstuhl.de/index.php/lites/issue/view/lites-v008-i002 Foreword abstract: This special issue contains seven papers within the broad subject of Distributed Hybrid Systems, that is, systems combining hybrid discrete-continuous state spaces with elements of concurrency and logical or spatial distribution. It follows up on several workshops on the same theme which were held between 2017 and 2019 and organized by the editors of this volume. The first of these workshops was held in Aalborg, Denmark, in August 2017 and associated with the MFCS conference. It featured invited talks by Alessandro Abate, Martin Fränzle, Kim G.~Larsen, Martin Raussen, and Rafael Wisniewski. The second workshop was held in Palaiseau, France, in July 2018, with invited talks by Luc Jaulin, Thao Dang, Lisbeth Fajstrup, Emmanuel Ledinot, and André Platzer. The third workshop was held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in August 2019, associated with the CONCUR conference. It featured a special theme on distributed robotics and had invited talks by Majid Zamani, Hervé de Forges, and Xavier Urbain. The vision and purpose of the DHS workshops was to connect researchers working in real-time systems, hybrid systems, control theory, formal verification, distributed computing, and concurrency theory, in order to advance the subject of distributed hybrid systems. Such systems are abundant and often safety-critical, but ensuring their correct functioning can in general be challenging. The investigation of their dynamics by analysis tools from the aforementioned domains remains fragmentary, providing the rationale behind the workshops: it was conceived that convergence and interaction of theories, methods, and tools from these different areas was needed in order to advance the subject.

We encourage everyone interested in Lisp to participate. The European Lisp Symposium invites high quality papers about novel research results, insights and lessons learned from practical applications, and educational perspectives. We also encourage submissions about known ideas as long as they are presented in a new setting and/or in a highly elegant way. Topics include but are not limited to: - context-, aspect-, domain-oriented and generative programming - macro-, reflective-, meta- and/or rule-based development approaches - language design and implementation - language integration, inter-operation and deployment - development methodologies, support and environments - educational approaches and perspectives - experience reports and case studies Technical Program ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We invite submissions in the following forms. * Papers: technical papers of up to 8 pages that describe original results or explain known ideas in new and elegant ways. * Demonstrations: abstracts of up to 4 pages for demonstrations of tools, libraries, and applications. * Tutorials: abstracts of up to 4 pages for in-depth presentations about topics of special interest. All submissions should be formatted following the ACM SIGS guidelines and include ACM Computing Classification System 2012 concepts and terms. Submissions should be uploaded to Easy Chair, at the following link http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=els2023. Note: to help us with the review process please indicate the type of submission by entering either "paper", "demo", or "tutorial" in the Keywords field.
