We consider the task of controlling in a distributed way a Zielonka asynchronous automaton. Every process of a controller has access to its causal past to determine the next set of actions it proposes to play. An action can be played only if every process controlling this action proposes to play it. We consider reachability objectives: every process should reach its set of final states. We show that this control problem is decidable for tree architectures, where every process can communicate with its parent, its children, and with the environment. The complexity of our algorithm is l-fold exponential with l being the height of the tree representing the architecture. We show that this is unavoidable by showing that even for three processes the problem is EXPTIME-complete, and that it is non-elementary in general.

Game semantics provides an interactive point of view on proofs, which enables one to describe precisely their dynamical behavior during cut elimination, by considering formulas as games on which proofs induce strategies. We are specifically intereste d here in relating two such semantics of linear logic, of very different flavor, which both take in account concurrent features of the proofs: asynchronous games and concurrent games. Interestingly, we show that associating a concurrent strategy to an asynchronous strategy can be seen as a semantical counterpart of the focusing property of linear logic.
We propose a fully asynchronous networked aggregative game (Asy-NAG) where each player minimizes a cost function that depends on its local action and the aggregate of all players actions. In sharp contrast to the existing NAGs, each player in our Asy -NAG can compute an estimate of the aggregate action at any wall-clock time by only using (possibly stale) information from nearby players of a directed network. Such an asynchronous update does not require any coordination among players. Moreover, we design a novel distributed algorithm with an aggressive mechanism for each player to adaptively adjust the optimization stepsize per update. Particularly, the slow players in terms of updating their estimates smartly increase their stepsizes to catch up with the fast ones. Then, we develop an augmented system approach to address the asynchronicity and the information delays between players, and rigorously show the convergence to a Nash equilibrium of the Asy-NAG via a perturbed coordinate algorithm which is also of independent interest. Finally, we evaluate the performance of the distributed algorithm through numerical simulations.

The decidability of the distributed version of the Ramadge and Wonham controller synthesis problem,where both the plant and the controllers are modeled as asynchronous automataand the controllers have causal memoryis a challenging open problem.There exist three classes of plants for which the existence of a correct controller with causal memory has been shown decidable: when the dependency graph of actions is series-parallel, when the processes are connectedly communicating and when the dependency graph of processes is a tree. We design a class of plants, called decomposable games, with a decidable controller synthesis problem.This provides a unified proof of the three existing decidability results as well as new examples of decidable plants.
This paper studies a large class of two-player perfect-information turn-based parity games on infinite graphs, namely those generated by collapsible pushdown automata. The main motivation for studying these games comes from the connections from colla psible pushdown automata and higher-order recursion schemes, both models being equi-expressive for generating infinite trees. Our main result is to establish the decidability of such games and to provide an effective representation of the winning region as well as of a winning strategy. Thus, the results obtained here provide all necessary tools for an in-depth study of logical properties of trees generated by collapsible pushdown automata/recursion schemes.
A weight normalization procedure, commonly called pushing, is introduced for weighted tree automata (wta) over commutative semifields. The normalization preserves the recognized weighted tree language even for nondeterministic wta, but it is most use ful for bottom-up deterministic wta, where it can be used for minimization and equivalence testing. In both applications a careful selection of the weights to be redistributed followed by normalization allows a reduction of the general problem to the corresponding problem for bottom-up deterministic unweighted tree automata. This approach was already successfully used by Mohri and Eisner for the minimization of deterministic weighted string automata. Moreover, the new equivalence test for two wta $M$ and $M$ runs in time $mathcal O((lvert M rvert + lvert Mrvert) cdot log {(lvert Qrvert + lvert Qrvert)})$, where $Q$ and $Q$ are the states of $M$ and $M$, respectively, which improves the previously best run-time $mathcal O(lvert M rvert cdot lvert Mrvert)$.
