Temporal logics for real-time system specification

P Bellini, R Mattolini, P Nesi - ACM Computing Surveys (CSUR), 2000 - dl.acm.org
The specification of reactive and real-time systems must be supported by formal,
mathematically-founded methods in order to be satisfactory and reliable. Temporal logics …

Formal methods for the specification and design of real-time safety critical systems

JS Ostroff - Journal of Systems and Software, 1992 - Elsevier
Safety-critical computers increasingly affect nearly every aspect of our lives. Computers
control the planes we fly on, monitor our health in hospitals and do our work in hazardous …

A theory of timed automata

R Alur, DL Dill - Theoretical computer science, 1994 - Elsevier
We propose timed (finite) automata to model the behavior of real-time systems over time.
Our definition provides a simple, and yet powerful, way to annotate state-transition graphs …

[图书][B] Introduction to discrete event systems

CG Cassandras, S Lafortune - 2008 - Springer
After going through all the previous chapters, it would be natural for readers to conclude that
DES are inherently complex and hard to analyze, regardless of the modeling framework …

[图书][B] The temporal logic of reactive and concurrent systems: specifications

Z Manna, A Pnueli - 1992 - books.google.com
Reactive systems are computing systems which are interactive, such as real-time systems,
operating systems, concurrent systems, control systems, etc. They are among the most …

Specifying real-time properties with metric temporal logic

R Koymans - Real-time systems, 1990 - Springer
This paper is motivated by the need for a formal specification method for real-time systems.
In these systems quantitative temporal properties play a dominant role. We first characterize …

The benefits of relaxing punctuality

R Alur, T Feder, TA Henzinger - Journal of the ACM (JACM), 1996 - dl.acm.org
The most natural, compositional, way of modeling real-time systems uses a dense domain
for time. The satistiability of timing constraints that are capable of expressing punctuality in …

Model-checking in dense real-time

R Alur, C Courcoubetis, D Dill - Information and computation, 1993 - Elsevier
Abstract Model-checking is a method of verifying concurrent systems in which a state-
transition graph model of the system behavior is compared with a temporal logic formula …

[图书][B] Handbook of knowledge representation

Representation, which lies at the core of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The book provides an up …

Model-checking for real-time systems

R Alur, C Courcoubetis, D Dill - [1990] Proceedings. Fifth …, 1990 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This research extends CTL model-checking to the analysis of real-time systems, whose
correctness depends on the magnitudes of the timing delays. For specifications, the syntax …
