Assessing the Use of Mixed Reality as a Valid Tool for Human-Robot Interaction Studies in the Context of Space Exploration

Authors: Enrico Guerra, Sebastian Thomas Büttner, Alper Beşer, and Michael Prilla

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 130, Advancing Human-Computer Interaction for Space Exploration (SpaceCHI 2025)

Abstract
Mixed Reality (MR) is a technology with strong potential for advancing research in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) for space exploration. Apart from the efficiency and high flexibility MR can offer, we argue that its benefits for HRI research in space contexts lies particularly in its ability to aid human-in-the-loop development, offer realistic hybrid simulations, and foster broader participation in HRI research in the space exploration context. However, we believe that this is only plausible if MR-based simulations can yield comparable results to fully physical approaches in human-centred studies. In this position paper, we highlight several arguments in favour of MR as a tool for space HRI research, while emphasising the importance of the open question regarding its scientific validity. We believe MR could become a central tool for preparing for future human-robotic space exploration missions and significantly diversify research in this domain.

Optimal Concolic Dynamic Partial Order Reduction

Authors: Mohammad Hossein Khoshechin Jorshari, Michalis Kokologiannakis, Rupak Majumdar, and Srinidhi Nagendra

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

Abstract
Stateless model checking (SMC) software implementations requires exploring both concurrency- and data nondeterminism. Unfortunately, most SMC algorithms focus on efficient exploration of concurrency nondeterminism, thereby neglecting an important source of bugs. We present ConDpor, an SMC algorithm for unmodified Java programs that combines optimal dynamic partial order reduction (DPOR) for concurrency nondeterminism, with concolic execution for data nondeterminism. ConDpor is sound, complete, optimal, and parametric w.r.t. the memory consistency model. Our experiments confirm that ConDpor is exponentially faster than DPOR with small-domain enumeration. Overall, ConDpor opens the door for efficient exploration of concurrent programs with data nondeterminism.

Analyzing Self-Stabilization of Synchronous Unison via Propositional Satisfiability

Authors: Asma Khoualdia, Sami Cherif, Stéphane Devismes, and Léo Robert

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 340, 31st International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2025)

Abstract
Synchronous unison is a classical clock synchronization problem in distributed computing, and especially in self-stabilization. This paper explores the self-stabilization of a synchronous unison algorithm proposed by Arora et al. using a propositional satisfiability-based approach. We give a logical formulation of the algorithm. This formulation includes the uniqueness of clock values at each node, the updates of clocks based on the minimum clock value in the neighborhood, and the detection of convergence or divergence. To optimize the models, additional constraints are introduced to reduce redundant cases of initial configurations to be analyzed. Our approach not only verifies the algorithm’s behaviour but also offers insights into enhancing its robustness and applicability to broader distributed systems.

FAIR Jupyter: A Knowledge Graph Approach to Semantic Sharing and Granular Exploration of a Computational Notebook Reproducibility Dataset

Authors: Sheeba Samuel and Daniel Mietchen

Published in: TGDK, Volume 2, Issue 2 (2024): Special Issue on Resources for Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 2, Issue 2

Abstract
The way in which data are shared can affect their utility and reusability. Here, we demonstrate how data that we had previously shared in bulk can be mobilized further through a knowledge graph that allows for much more granular exploration and interrogation. The original dataset is about the computational reproducibility of GitHub-hosted Jupyter notebooks associated with biomedical publications. It contains rich metadata about the publications, associated GitHub repositories and Jupyter notebooks, and the notebooks' reproducibility. We took this dataset, converted it into semantic triples and loaded these into a triple store to create a knowledge graph - FAIR Jupyter - that we made accessible via a web service. This enables granular data exploration and analysis through queries that can be tailored to specific use cases. Such queries may provide details about any of the variables from the original dataset, highlight relationships between them or combine some of the graph’s content with materials from corresponding external resources. We provide a collection of example queries addressing a range of use cases in research and education. We also outline how sets of such queries can be used to profile specific content types, either individually or by class. We conclude by discussing how such a semantically enhanced sharing of complex datasets can both enhance their FAIRness - i.e., their findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability - and help identify and communicate best practices, particularly with regards to data quality, standardization, automation and reproducibility.

Verification of MPI-based Computations

Authors: Stephen F. Siegel

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8332, Distributed Verification and Grid Computing (2008)

Abstract
The Message Passing Interface is a widely-used parallel programming model and is the effective standard for high-performance scientific computing. It has also been used in parallel model checkers, such as DiVinE. In this talk we discuss the verification problem for MPI-based programs. The MPI is quite large and the semantics complex. Nevertheless, by restricting to a certain subset of MPI, the verification problem becomes tractable. Certain constructs outside of this subset (such as wildcard receives) can lead to a rapid blowup in the number of states, but MPI-specific reduction techniques have led to progress in combating this state explosion. Specifying correctness is another challenge. One approach is to use a trusted sequential version of the program as the specification, and use model checking and symbolic execution techniques to establish the functional equivalence of the sequential and parallel versions. This approach is supported in extsc{Mpi-Spin}, an extension to the model checker extsc{Spin} for verifying MPI-based programs.
