Timed automata are a common formalism for the verification of concurrent systems subject to timing constraints. They extend finite-state automata with clocks, that constrain the system behavior in locations, and to take transitions. While…

Updatable timed automata (UTA) are extensions of classic timed automata that allow special updates to clock variables, like x:= x - 1, x := y + 2, etc., on transitions. Reachability for UTA is undecidable in general. Various subclasses with…
