When dealing with linear temporal logic properties in the setting of e.g. games or probabilistic systems, one often needs to express them as deterministic omega-automata. In order to translate LTL to deterministic omega-automata, the…

The idea of automatic synthesis of reactive programs starting from temporal logic (LTL) specifications is quite old, but was commonly thought to be infeasible due to the known double exponential complexity of the problem. However, new ideas…
