Integrated Rigorous Analysis in Cyber-Physical Systems Engineering (Dagstuhl Seminar 23041)

Authors: Erika Abraham, Stefan Hallerstede, John Hatcliff, Danielle Stewart, and Noah Abou El Wafa

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 13, Issue 1 (2023)

Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of the Dagstuhl Seminar 23041 "Integrated Rigorous Analysis in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Engineering". This seminar brought together academic and industry representations from a variety of domains with backgrounds in different techniques to develop a roadmap for addressing the current challenges in the area of CPS engineering. An overarching theme was the potential use of integrated models and associated methodologies that support cross-technique information/results sharing and smooth workflow hand-offs between individual tools and methods.

New Perspectives in Symbolic Computation and Satisfiability Checking (Dagstuhl Seminar 22072)

Authors: Erika Abraham, James H. Davenport, Matthew England, and Alberto Griggio

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 12, Issue 2 (2022)

Abstract
Dagstuhl Seminar 22072 gathered researchers from Symbolic Computation and Satisfiability Checking. These communities have independent histories but worked together in recent years (e.g. Dagstuhl Seminar 15471 and the EU SC-Square Project). We seek to tackle problems which are in the interest of both communities, and require the expertise of both to overcome.

Probabilistic Simulation of a Railway Timetable

Authors: Rebecca Haehn, Erika Ábrahám, and Nils Nießen

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 85, 20th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2020)

Abstract
Railway systems are often highly utilized, which makes them vulnerable to delay propagation. In order to minimize delays timetables are desired to be robust, a property that is often estimated by simulating the respective timetable for different deterministic delay values. To achieve an accurate estimation under consideration of uncertain delays many simulation runs need to be executed. Most established simulation systems additionally use microscopic models of the railway systems, which further increases the simulations running times and makes them applicable rather for small areas of interest for complexity reasons. In this paper, we present a probabilistic, symbolic simulation algorithm for given timetables, this means we do not simulate individual executions, but all possible executions at once. We use a macroscopic model of the railway infrastructure as input. This way we consider the railway systems in less detail but are able to examine certain performance indicators for larger areas. For a given input model this simulation computes exact results. We implement the algorithm, examine its results, and discuss possible improvements of this approach.

Symbolic Computation and Satisfiability Checking (Dagstuhl Seminar 15471)

Authors: Erika Ábrahám, Pascal Fontaine, Thomas Sturm, and Dongming Wang

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 5, Issue 11 (2016)

Abstract
The seminar focused on satisfiability checking for combinations of first-order logic and subclasses thereof with arithmetic theories in a very liberal sense, also covering quantifiers and parameters. It gathered members of the two communities of symbolic computation (or computer algebra) and satisfiability checking (including satisfiability modulo theories). Up-to-now, these two communities have been working quite independently. We are confident that the seminar will initiate cross-fertilization of both fields and bring improvements for both satisfiability checking and symbolic computation, and for their applications.

Randomized Timed and Hybrid Models for Critical Infrastructures (Dagstuhl Seminar 14031)

Authors: Erika Ábrahám, Alberto Avritzer, Anne Remke, and William H. Sanders

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 4, Issue 1 (2014)

Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 14031 "Randomized Timed and Hybrid Models for Critical Infrastructures". Critical Infrastructures, such as power grid and water and gas distribution networks, are essential for the functioning of our society and economy. Randomized Timed and Hybrid Models appear as a natural choice for their modeling, and come with existing algorithms and tool support for their analysis. However, on the one hand, the Critical Infrastructures community does not yet make full use of recent advances for Randomized Timed and Hybrid Models. On the other hand, existing algorithms are not yet readily applicable to the special kind of problems arising in Critical Infrastructures. This seminar brought together researchers from these fields to communicate with each other and to exchange knowledge, experiences and needs.

A Lazy SMT-Solver for a Non-Linear Subset of Real Algebra

Authors: Erika Abraham, Florian Corzilius, Ulrich Loup, and Thomas Sturm

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10271, Verification over discrete-continuous boundaries (2010)

Abstract
There are several methods for the synthesis and analysis of hybrid systems that require efficient algorithms and tools for satisfiability checking. For analysis, e.g., bounded model checking describes counterexamples of a fixed length by logical formulas, whose satisfiability corresponds to the existence of such a counterexample. As an example for parameter synthesis, we can state the correctness of a parameterized system by a logical formula; the solution set of the formula gives us possible safe instances of the parameters. For discrete systems, which can be described by propositional logic formulas, SAT-solvers can be used for the satisfiability checks. For hybrid systems, having mixed discrete-continuous behavior, SMT-solvers are needed. SMT-solving extends SAT with theories, and has its main focus on linear arithmetic, which is sufficient to handle, e.g., linear hybrid systems. However, there are only few solvers for more expressive but still decidable logics like the first-order theory of the reals with addition and multiplication -- real algebra. Since the synthesis and analysis of non-linear hybrid systems requires such a powerful logic, we need efficient SMT-solvers for real algebra. Our goal is to develop such an SMT-solver for the real algebra, which is both complete and efficient.

SMT-Solving for the First-Order Theory of the Reals

Authors: Erika Abraham and Ulrich Loup

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9461, Algorithms and Applications for Next Generation SAT Solvers (2010)

Abstract
SAT-solving is a highly actual research area with increasing success and plenty of industrial applications. SMT-solving, extending SAT with theories, has its main focus on linear real constrains. However, there are only few solvers going further to more expressive but still decidable logics like the first-order theory of the reals with addition and multiplication. The main requests on theory solvers that must be fulfilled for their efficient embedding into an SMT solver are (a) incrementality, (b) the efficient computation of minimal infeasible subsets, and (c) the support of backtracking. For the first-order theory of the reals we are not aware of any solver offering those functionalities. In this work we address the possibilities to extend existing theory solving algorithms to come up with a theory solver suited for SMT.
