Providing examples is one of the most common way for end-users to interact with program synthesizers. However, program synthesis systems assume that examples consistent with the program are chosen at random, and do not exploit the fact that…

Data races can significantly affect the executions of multi-threaded programs. Hence, one has to recur the results of data races to deterministically replay a multi-threaded program. However, data races are concealed in enormous number of…

We study a generalisation of B\"uchi-Landweber games to the timed setting. The winning condition is specified by a non-deterministic timed automaton, and one of the players can elapse time. We perform a systematic study of synthesis…
