In this work, we consider translating tock-CSP into Timed Automata for UPPAAL to facilitate using UPPAAL in reasoning about temporal specifications of tock-CSP models. The process algebra tock-CSP provides textual notations for modelling discrete-time behaviours, with the support of tools for automatic verification. Similarly, automatic verification of Timed Automata (TA) with a graphical notation is supported by the UPPAAL real-time verification toolbox uppaal. The two modelling approaches, TA and tock-CSP, differ in both modelling and verification approaches, temporal logic and refinement, respectively, as well as their provided facilities for automatic verification. For instance, liveness requirements are difficult to specify with the constructs of tock-CSP, but they are easy to specify and verify in UPPAAL. To take advantage of temporal logic, we translate tock-CSP into TA for uppaal; we have developed a translation technique and its supporting tool. We provide rules for translating tock-CSP into a network of small TAs for capturing the compositional structure of tock-CSP that is not available in TA. For validation, we start with an experimental approach based on finite approximations to trace sets. Then, we explore mathematical proof to establish the correctness of the rules for covering infinite traces.

We consider a notion of non-interference for timed automata (TAs) that allows to quantify the frequency of an attack; that is, we infer values of the minimal time between two consecutive actions of the attacker, so that (s)he disturbs the set of reac hable locations. We also synthesize valuations for the timing constants of the TA (seen as parameters) guaranteeing non-interference. We show that this can reduce to reachability synthesis in parametric timed automata. We apply our method to a model of the Fischer mutual exclusion protocol and obtain preliminary results.
The paper addresses the problem of computing maximal expected time to termination of probabilistic timed automata (PTA) models, under the condition that the system will, eventually, terminate. This problem can exhibit high computational complexity, i n particular when the automaton under analysis contains cycles that may be repeated very often (due to very high probabilities, e.g. p =0.999). Such cycles can degrade the performance of typical model checking algorithms, as the likelihood of repeating the cycle converges to zero arbitrarily slowly. We introduce an acceleration technique that can be applied to improve the execution of such cycles by collapsing their iterations. The acceleration process of a cyclic PTA consists of several formal steps necessary to handle the cumulative timing and probability information that result from successive executions of a cycle. The advantages of acceleration are twofold. First, it helps to reduce the computational complexity of the problem without adversely affecting the outcome of the analysis. Second, it can bring the worst case execution time problem of PTAs within the bounds of feasibility for model checking techniques. To our knowledge, this is the first work that addresses the problem of accelerating execution of cycles that exhibit both timing and probabilistic behavior.
Model checking timed automata becomes increasingly complex with the increase in the number of clocks. Hence it is desirable that one constructs an automaton with the minimum number of clocks possible. The problem of checking whether there exists a ti med automaton with a smaller number of clocks such that the timed language accepted by the original automaton is preserved is known to be undecidable. In this paper, we give a construction, which for any given timed automaton produces a timed bisimilar automaton with the least number of clocks. Further, we show that such an automaton with the minimum possible number of clocks can be constructed in time that is doubly exponential in the number of clocks of the original automaton.
Timed automata are a convenient mathematical model for modelling and reasoning about real-time systems. While they provide a powerful way of representing timing aspects of such systems, timed automata assume arbitrary precision and zero-delay actions ; in particular, a state might be declared reachable in a timed automaton, but impossible to reach in the physical system it models. In this paper, we consider permissive strategies as a way to overcome this problem: such strategies propose intervals of delays instead of single delays, and aim at reaching a target state whichever delay actually takes place. We develop an algorithm for computing the optimal permissiveness (and an associated maximally-permissive strategy) in acyclic timed automata and games.
In this paper, we study the parameter synthesis problem for a class of parametric timed automata. The problem asks to construct the set of valuations of the parameters in the parametric timed automa- ton, referred to as the feasible region, under whi ch the resulting timed automaton satisfies certain properties. We show that the parameter syn- thesis problem of parametric timed automata with only one parametric clock (unlimited concretely constrained clock) and arbitrarily many pa- rameters is solvable when all the expressions are linear expressions. And it is moreover the synthesis problem is solvable when the form of con- straints are parameter polynomial inequality not just simple constraint and parameter domain is nonnegative real number.
