Distributed Games with a Central Decision Maker

Authors: Bharat Adsul and Nehul Jain

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


Abstract
We study distributed games played on non-deterministic asynchronous automata which feature a central decision maker process that participates in all key decision making tasks. In these partial-information games, processes use their causal past to respond to scheduling choices made by the scheduler and cooperatively strategize as a team to achieve the winning objective. We show that the problem of deciding the existence of a distributed winning strategy is efficiently solvable for global safety and local parity objectives. We provide algorithmic solutions that match their computational hardness. We formulate the notion of a finite-state distributed strategy which allows to quantify its distributed memory requirements. For the aforementioned objectives, we establish that finite-state distributed winning strategies always exist. In fact, we provide novel constructions of such winning strategies which are shown to have almost optimal amount of distributed memory. We also show that a natural extension of the model with two decision making processes is undecidable.

Certified Implementability of Global Multiparty Protocols

Authors: Elaine Li and Thomas Wies

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)


Abstract
Implementability is the decision problem at the heart of top-down approaches to protocol verification. In this paper, we present a mechanization of a recently proposed precise implementability characterization by Li et al. for a large class of protocols that subsumes many existing formalisms in the literature. Our protocols and implementations model asynchronous commmunication, and can exhibit infinite behavior. We improve upon their pen-and-paper results by unifying distinct formalisms, simplifying existing proof arguments, elaborating on the construction of canonical implementations, and even uncovering a subtle bug in the semantics for infinite words. As a corollary of our mechanization, we show that the original characterization of implementability applies even to protocols with infinitely many participants. We also contribute a reusable library for reasoning about generic communicating state machines. Our mechanization consists of about 15k lines of Rocq code. We believe that our mechanization can provide the foundation for deductively proving the implementability of protocols beyond the reach of prior work, extracting certified implementations for finite protocols, and investigating implementability under alternative asynchronous communication models.

Compositional Active Learning of Synchronizing Systems Through Automated Alphabet Refinement

Authors: Léo Henry, Mohammad Reza Mousavi, Thomas Neele, and Matteo Sammartino

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


Abstract
Active automata learning infers automaton models of systems from behavioral observations, a technique successfully applied to a wide range of domains. Compositional approaches for concurrent systems have recently emerged. We take a significant step beyond available results, including those by the authors, and develop a general technique for compositional learning of a synchronizing parallel system with an unknown decomposition. Our approach automatically refines the global alphabet into component alphabets while learning the component models. We develop a theoretical treatment of distributions of alphabets, i.e., sets of possibly overlapping component alphabets. We characterize counter-examples that reveal inconsistencies with global observations, and show how to systematically update the distribution to restore consistency. We present a compositional learning algorithm implementing these ideas, where learning counterexamples precisely correspond to distribution counterexamples under well-defined conditions. We provide an implementation, called CoalA, using the state-of-the-art active learning library LearnLib. Our experiments show that in more than 630 subject systems, CoalA delivers orders of magnitude improvements (up to five orders) in membership queries and in systems with significant concurrency, it also achieves better scalability in the number of equivalence queries.

On the Send-Synchronizability Problem for Mailbox Communication

Authors: Romain Delpy, Anca Muscholl, and Grégoire Sutre

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


Abstract
A system of communicating automata is send-synchronizable if its set of send sequences (i.e., the projection on send actions of its executions) is the same when communications are asynchronous and when they are rendez-vous synchronizations. Send-synchronizability was claimed to be decidable for the mailbox semantics (Basu and Bultan, 2011) and for the peer-to-peer semantics (Basu and Bultan, 2016). Finkel and Lozes showed in 2017 that the proofs of these results are flawed, and they proved that send-synchronizability is in fact undecidable for peer-to-peer systems. The send-synchronizability problem for mailbox systems was left open. A partial solution was recently proposed in (Di Giusto, Laversa and Peters, 2024). In this paper, we revisit the send-synchronizability problem for mailbox systems. Firstly, we show that send-synchronizability is undecidable for mailbox systems, thus closing the question left open in (Finkel and Lozes, 2023) and (Di Giusto, Laversa and Peters, 2024). Secondly, we show that send-synchronizability is decidable for the class of 1-schedulable mailbox systems. A system is 1-schedulable if every execution can be re-scheduled into an equivalent execution where each send is either immediately followed by its matching receive, or is never matched. Despite the apparent similarity between send-synchronizability and 1-schedulability, the proof that send-synchronizability is decidable for 1-schedulable mailbox systems is quite involved. We believe that the techniques that we develop in this proof could be used to address other problems on mailbox systems, such as the realizability problem.

Just Verification of Mutual Exclusion Algorithms

Authors: Rob van Glabbeek, Bas Luttik, and Myrthe S. C. Spronck

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


Abstract
We verify the correctness of a variety of mutual exclusion algorithms through model checking. We look at algorithms where communication is via shared read/write registers, where those registers can be atomic or non-atomic. For the verification of liveness properties, it is necessary to assume a completeness criterion to eliminate spurious counterexamples. We use justness as completeness criterion. Justness depends on a concurrency relation; we consider several such relations, modelling different assumptions on the working of the shared registers. We present executions demonstrating the violation of correctness properties by several algorithms, and in some cases suggest improvements.

Characterizations of Fragments of Temporal Logic over Mazurkiewicz Traces

Authors: Bharat Adsul, Paul Gastin, and Shantanu Kulkarni

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


Abstract
We study fragments of temporal logics over Mazurkiewicz traces which are well known and established partial-order models of concurrent behaviours. We focus on concurrent versions of "strict past" and "strict future" modalities. Over words, the corresponding fragments have been shown to coincide with natural algebraic conditions on the recognizing monoids. We provide non-trivial generalizations of these classical results to traces. We exploit the local nature of the temporal modalities and obtain modular translations of specifications into asynchronous automata. More specifically, we provide novel characterizations of these fragments via local cascade products of a very simple two-state asynchronous automaton operating on a single process.

Taming Infinity One Chunk at a Time: Concisely Represented Strategies in One-Counter MDPs

Authors: Michal Ajdarów, James C. A. Main, Petr Novotný, and Mickael Randour

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)


Abstract
Markov decision processes (MDPs) are a canonical model to reason about decision making within a stochastic environment. We study a fundamental class of infinite MDPs: one-counter MDPs (OC-MDPs). They extend finite MDPs via an associated counter taking natural values, thus inducing an infinite MDP over the set of configurations (current state and counter value). We consider two characteristic objectives: reaching a target state (state-reachability), and reaching a target state with counter value zero (selective termination). The synthesis problem for the latter is not known to be decidable and connected to major open problems in number theory. Furthermore, even seemingly simple strategies (e.g., memoryless ones) in OC-MDPs might be impossible to build in practice (due to the underlying infinite configuration space): we need finite, and preferably small, representations. To overcome these obstacles, we introduce two natural classes of concisely represented strategies based on a (possibly infinite) partition of counter values in intervals. For both classes, and both objectives, we study the verification problem (does a given strategy ensure a high enough probability for the objective?), and two synthesis problems (does there exist such a strategy?): one where the interval partition is fixed as input, and one where it is only parameterized. We develop a generic approach based on a compression of the induced infinite MDP that yields decidability in all cases, with all complexities within PSPACE.

Generalising Projection in Asynchronous Multiparty Session Types

Authors: Rupak Majumdar, Madhavan Mukund, Felix Stutz, and Damien Zufferey

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 203, 32nd International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2021)


Abstract
Multiparty session types (MSTs) provide an efficient methodology for specifying and verifying message passing software systems. In the theory of MSTs, a global type specifies the interaction among the roles at the global level. A local specification for each role is generated by projecting from the global type on to the message exchanges it participates in. Whenever a global type can be projected on to each role, the composition of the projections is deadlock free and has exactly the behaviours specified by the global type. The key to the usability of MSTs is the projection operation: a more expressive projection allows more systems to be type-checked but requires a more difficult soundness argument. In this paper, we generalise the standard projection operation in MSTs. This allows us to model and type-check many design patterns in distributed systems, such as load balancing, that are rejected by the standard projection. The key to the new projection is an analysis that tracks causality between messages. Our soundness proof uses novel graph-theoretic techniques from the theory of message-sequence charts. We demonstrate the efficacy of the new projection operation by showing many global types for common patterns that can be projected under our projection but not under the standard projection operation.

Model checking time-constrained scenario-based specifications

Authors: S. Akshay, Paul Gastin, Madhavan Mukund, and K. Narayan Kumar

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 8, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2010)


Abstract
We consider the problem of model checking message-passing systems with real-time requirements. As behavioural specifications, we use message sequence charts (MSCs) annotated with timing constraints. Our system model is a network of communicating finite state machines with local clocks, whose global behaviour can be regarded as a timed automaton. Our goal is to verify that all timed behaviours exhibited by the system conform to the timing constraints imposed by the specification. In general, this corresponds to checking inclusion for timed languages, which is an undecidable problem even for timed regular languages. However, we show that we can translate regular collections of time-constrained MSCs into a special class of event-clock automata that can be determinized and complemented, thus permitting an algorithmic solution to the model checking problem.

2008 Preface -- IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science

Authors: Ramesh Hariharan, Madhavan Mukund, and V Vinay

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 2, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (2008)


Abstract
This volume contains the proceedings of the 28th international conference on the Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2008), organized under the auspices of the Indian Association for Research in Computing Science (IARCS). This year's conference attracted 117 submissions. Each submission was reviewed by at least three independent referees. The final selection of the papers making up the programme was done through an electronic discussion on EasyChair, spanning two weeks, without a physical meeting of the Programme Committee (PC). All PC members participated actively in the discussion. We have five invited speakers this year: Hubert Comon-Lundh, Uriel Feige, Erich Graedel, Simon Peyton Jones and Leslie Valiant. We thank them for having readily accepted our invitation to talk at the conference and for providing abstracts (and even full papers) for the proceedings. We thank all the reviewers and PC members, without whose dedicated effort the conference would not be possible. We thank the Organizing Committee for making the arrangements for the conference. This year, the conference is being held at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, as part of its centenary year celebrations. It is a great honour and privilege for the conference to be recognized and associated with the institute on this occasion. Finally, this year we have taken a decisive step in democratizing the conference by moving away from commercial publishers. Instead, we will be hosting the proceedings online, electronically, via the Dagstuhl Research Online Publication Server (DROPS). A complete copy of the proceedings will also be hosted on the FSTTCS website (www.fsttcs.org). The copyrights to the papers will reside not with the publishers but with the respective authors. The copyright is now governed by the Creative Commons attribution NC-ND. We do hope this direction will be sustained in the future.

3-connected Planar Graph Isomorphism is in Log-space

Authors: Samir Datta, Nutan Limaye, and Prajakta Nimbhorkar

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 2, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (2008)


Abstract
We consider the isomorphism and canonization problem for $3$-connected planar graphs. The problem was known to be \Log-hard and in \ULcoUL\ \cite{TW07}. In this paper, we give a deterministic log-space algorithm for $3$-connected planar graph isomorphism and canonization. This gives an \Log-completeness result, thereby settling its complexity. \par The algorithm uses the notion of universal exploration sequences from \cite{koucky01} and \cite{Rei05}. To our knowledge, this is a completely new approach to graph canonization.
