Population Based Methods for Optimising Infinite Behaviours of Timed Automata

Abstract
Timed automata are powerful models for the analysis of real time systems. The optimal infinite scheduling problem for double-priced timed automata is concerned with finding infinite runs of a system whose long term cost to reward ratio is minimal. Due to the state-space explosion occurring when discretising a timed automaton, exact computation of the optimal infinite ratio is infeasible. This paper describes the implementation and evaluation of ant colony optimisation for approximating the optimal schedule for a given double-priced timed automaton. The application of ant colony optimisation to the corner-point abstraction of the automaton proved generally less effective than a random method. The best found optimisation method was obtained by formulating the choice of time delays in a cycle of the automaton as a linear program and utilizing ant colony optimisation in order to determine a sequence of profitable discrete transitions comprising an infinite behaviour.
