Reasoning About Quality in Hyperproperties

Authors: Samuel Graepler, Benjamin Monmege, and Jean-Marc Talbot

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 363, 34th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2026)

Abstract
Hyperproperties allow one to specify properties of systems that inherently involve not single executions of the system, but several of them at once: observational determinism and non-inference are two examples of such properties used to study the security of systems. Logics like HyperLTL have been studied in the past to model check hyperproperties of systems. However, most of the time, requiring strict security properties is actually ineffective as systems do not meet such requirements. To overcome this issue, we introduce qualitative reasoning in HyperLTL, inspired by a similar work on LTL by Almagor, Boker and Kupferman [Almagor et al., 2016] where a formula has a value in the interval [0, 1], obtained by considering either a propositional quality (how much the specification is satisfied), or a temporal quality (when the specification is satisfied). We show decidability of the approximated model checking problem, as well as the model checking of large fragments.

Unreliability in Practical Subclasses of Communicating Systems

Authors: Amrita Suresh and Nobuko Yoshida

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)

Abstract
Systems of communicating automata are prominent models for peer-to-peer message-passing over unbounded channels, but in the general scenario, most verification properties are undecidable. To address this issue, two decidable subclasses, Realisable with Synchronous Communication (RSC) and k-Multiparty Compatibility (k-MC), were proposed in the literature, with corresponding verification tools developed and applied in practice. Unfortunately, both RSC and k-MC are not resilient under failures: (1) their decidability relies on the assumption of perfect channels and (2) most standard protocols do not satisfy RSC or k-MC under failures. To address these limitations, this paper studies the resilience of RSC and k-MC under two distinct failure models: interference and crash-stop failures. For interference, we relax the conditions of RSC and k-MC and prove that the inclusions of these relaxed properties remain decidable under interference, preserving their known complexity bounds. We then propose a novel crash-handling communicating system that captures wider behaviours than existing multiparty session types (MPST) with crash-stop failures. We study a translation of MPST with crash-stop failures into this system integrating RSC and k-MC properties, and establish their decidability results. Finally, by verifying representative protocols from the literature using RSC and k-MC tools extended to interferences, we evaluate the relaxed systems and demonstrate their resilience.

Beyond Dynamic Bayesian Networks: Fusing Temporal Logic Monitors with Probabilistic Diagnosis (Short Paper)

Authors: Chetan Kulkarni and Johann Schumann

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 136, 36th International Conference on Principles of Diagnosis and Resilient Systems (DX 2025)

Abstract
Conventional diagnostic systems often fail to account for temporal dynamics - such as duration, frequency, or sequence of events - which are critical for accurate fault assessment. Existing solutions that model time, like Dynamic Bayesian Networks (DBNs), typically suffer from computational complexity and scalability issues. This paper introduces a hybrid diagnostic architecture that integrates a standard Bayesian Networks (BNs) with a powerful temporal reasoner R2U2 (Realizable Responsive Unobtrusive Unit). By decoupling temporal logic from probabilistic inference, our approach allows the specialized R2U2 engine to efficiently process complex time-dependent conditions and provide nuanced inputs to the BNs. The result is a more scalable, flexible, and robust framework for diagnosing failures in systems where temporal behavior is a key factor. The paper will detail this architecture, its generation from system models, and demonstrate its capabilities using a UAV electric powertrain example.

Monitorability for the Modal Mu-Calculus over Systems with Data: From Practice to Theory

Authors: Luca Aceto, Antonis Achilleos, Duncan Paul Attard, Léo Exibard, Adrian Francalanza, Anna Ingólfsdóttir, and Karoliina Lehtinen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)

Abstract
Runtime verification consists in checking whether a system satisfies a given specification by observing the execution trace it produces. In the regular setting, the modal μ-calculus provides a versatile formalism for expressing specifications of the control flow of the system. This paper focuses on the data flow and studies an extension of that logic that allows it to express data-dependent properties, identifying fragments that can be verified at runtime and with what correctness guarantees. The logic studied here is closely related with register automata with guessing. That correspondence yields a monitor synthesis algorithm, and a strict hierarchy among the various fragments of the logic, in contrast to the regular setting. We then exhibit a fragment of the logic that can express all monitorable formulae in the logic without greatest fixed-points but not in the full logic, and show this is the best we can get.

The Complexity of Second-Order HyperLTL

Authors: Hadar Frenkel and Martin Zimmermann

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)

Abstract
We determine the complexity of second-order HyperLTL satisfiability, finite-state satisfiability, and model-checking: All three are equivalent to truth in third-order arithmetic. We also consider two fragments of second-order HyperLTL that have been introduced with the aim to facilitate effective model-checking by restricting the sets one can quantify over. The first one restricts second-order quantification to smallest/largest sets that satisfy a guard while the second one restricts second-order quantification further to least fixed points of (first-order) HyperLTL definable functions. All three problems for the first fragment are still equivalent to truth in third-order arithmetic while satisfiability for the second fragment is Σ₁¹-complete, i.e., only as hard as for (first-order) HyperLTL and therefore much less complex. Finally, finite-state satisfiability and model-checking are in Σ₂² and are Σ₁¹-hard, and thus also less complex than for full second-order HyperLTL.

Swarms of Mobile Robots: Towards Versatility with Safety

Authors: Pierre Courtieu, Lionel Rieg, Sébastien Tixeuil, and Xavier Urbain

Published in: LITES, Volume 8, Issue 2 (2022): Special Issue on Distributed Hybrid Systems. Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 8, Issue 2

Abstract
We present Pactole, a formal framework to design and prove the correctness of protocols (or the impossibility of their existence) that target mobile robotic swarms. Unlike previous approaches, our methodology unifies in a single formalism the execution model, the problem specification, the protocol, and its proof of correctness. The Pactole framework makes use of the Coq proof assistant, and is specially targeted at protocol designers and problem specifiers, so that a common unambiguous language is used from the very early stages of protocol development. We stress the underlying framework design principles to enable high expressivity and modularity, and provide concrete examples about how the Pactole framework can be used to tackle actual problems, some previously addressed by the Distributed Computing community, but also new problems, while being certified correct.

Distributed Runtime Verification Under Partial Synchrony

Authors: Ritam Ganguly, Anik Momtaz, and Borzoo Bonakdarpour

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 184, 24th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2020)

Abstract
In this paper, we study the problem of runtime verification of distributed applications that do not share a global clock with respect to specifications in the linear temporal logics (LTL). Our proposed method distinguishes from the existing work in three novel ways. First, we make a practical assumption that the distributed system under scrutiny is augmented with a clock synchronization algorithm that guarantees bounded clock skew among all processes. Second, we do not make any assumption about the structure of predicates that form LTL formulas. This relaxation allows us to monitor a wide range of applications that was not possible before. Subsequently, we propose a distributed monitoring algorithm by employing SMT solving techniques. Third, given the fact that distributed applications nowadays run on massive cloud services, we extend our solution to a parallel monitoring algorithm to utilize the available computing infrastructure. We report on rigorous synthetic as well as real-world case studies and demonstrate that scalable online monitoring of distributed applications is within our reach.

Local Planning Semantics: A Semantics for Distributed Real-Time Systems

Authors: Mahieddine Dellabani, Jacques Combaz, Saddek Bensalem, and Marius Bozga

Published in: LITES, Volume 6, Issue 1 (2019). Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 6, Issue 1

Abstract
Design, implementation and verification of distributed real-time systems are acknowledged to be very hard tasks. Such systems are prone to different kinds of delay, such as execution time of actions or communication delays implied by distributed platforms. The latter increase considerably the complexity of coordinating the parallel activities of running components. Scheduling such systems must cope with those delays by proposing execution strategies  ensuring global consistency while satisfying the imposed timing constraints. In this paper, we investigate a formal model for such systems as compositions of timed automata subject to multiparty interactions, and propose a semantics aiming to overcome the communication delays problem through anticipating the execution of interactions. To be effective in a distributed context, scheduling an interaction should rely on (as much as possible) local information only, namely the state of its participating components. However, as shown in this paper these information is not always sufficient and does not guarantee a safe execution of the system as it may introduce deadlocks. Moreover, delays may also affect the satisfaction of timing constraints, which also corresponds to deadlocks in the former model. Thus, we also explore methods for analyzing such deadlock situations and for computing  deadlock-free scheduling strategies when possible.

Parameterized Synthesis of Self-Stabilizing Protocols in Symmetric Rings

Authors: Nahal Mirzaie, Fathiyeh Faghih, Swen Jacobs, and Borzoo Bonakdarpour

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 125, 22nd International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2018)

Abstract
Self-stabilization in distributed systems is a technique to guarantee convergence to a set of legitimate states without external intervention when a transient fault or bad initialization occurs. Recently, there has been a surge of efforts in designing techniques for automated synthesis of self-stabilizing algorithms that are correct by construction. Most of these techniques, however, are not parameterized, meaning that they can only synthesize a solution for a fixed and predetermined number of processes. In this paper, we report a breakthrough in parameterized synthesis of self-stabilizing algorithms in symmetric rings. First, we develop tight cutoffs that guarantee (1) closure in legitimate states, and (2) deadlock-freedom outside the legitimates states. We also develop a sufficient condition for convergence in silent self-stabilizing systems. Since some of our cutoffs grow with the size of local state space of processes, we also present an automated technique that significantly increases the scalability of synthesis in symmetric networks. Our technique is based on SMT-solving and incorporates a loop of synthesis and verification guided by counterexamples. We have fully implemented our technique and successfully synthesized solutions to maximal matching, three coloring, and maximal independent set problems.

Decentralized Asynchronous Crash-Resilient Runtime Verification

Authors: Borzoo Bonakdarpour, Pierre Fraigniaud, Sergio Rajsbaum, David A. Rosenblueth, and Corentin Travers

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 59, 27th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2016)

Abstract
Runtime Verification (RV) is a lightweight method for monitoring the formal specification of a system during its execution. It has recently been shown that a given state predicate can be monitored consistently by a set of crash-prone asynchronous distributed monitors, only if sufficiently many different verdicts can be emitted by each monitor. We revisit this impossibility result in the context of LTL semantics for RV. We show that employing the four-valued logic Rv-LTL will result in inconsistent distributed monitoring for some formulas. Our first main contribution is a family of logics, called Ltl2k+4, that refines Rv-Ltl incorporating 2k + 4 truth values, for each k >= 0. The truth values of Ltl2k+4 can be effectively used by each monitor to reach a consistent global set of verdicts for each given formula, provided k is sufficiently large. Our second main contribution is an algorithm for monitor construction enabling fault-tolerant distributed monitoring based on the aggregation of the individual verdicts by each monitor.
