Temporal Logic (TL) guided control problems have gained interests in recent years. By using the TL, one can specify a wide range of temporal constraints on the system and is widely used in cyber-physical systems. On the other hand, Control…

Many complex scenarios require the coordination of agents possessing unique points of view and distinct semantic commitments. In response, standpoint logic (SL) was introduced in the context of knowledge integration, allowing one to reason…

In monitoring, we algorithmically check if a single behavior satisfies a property. Here, we consider monitoring for Multi-Lane Spatial Logic (MLSL). The behavior is given as a finite transition sequence of MLSL and the property is that a…

In this work we formulate the satisfaction of a (syntactically co-safe) linear temporal logic specification on a physical plant through a recent hybrid dynamical systems formalism. In order to solve this problem, we introduce an extension…

Automated temporal planning is the technology of choice when controlling systems that can execute more actions in parallel and when temporal constraints, such as deadlines, are needed in the model. One limitation of several action-based…

In distributed systems with processes that do not share a global clock, \emph{partial synchrony} is achieved by clock synchronization that guarantees bounded clock skew among all applications. Existing solutions for distributed runtime…

We study the expressivity and complexity of model checking linear temporal logic with team semantics (TeamLTL). TeamLTL, despite being a purely modal logic, is capable of defining hyperproperties, i.e., properties which relate multiple…

We consider systems composed of an unbounded number of uniformly designed linear hybrid automata, whose dynamic behavior is determined by their relation to neighboring systems. We present a class of such systems and a class of safety…

Signal Temporal Logic (STL) is a formal language for describing a broad range of real-valued, temporal properties in cyber-physical systems. While there has been extensive research on verification and control synthesis from STL…

We define a formal framework for reasoning about linear-time properties of quantum systems in which quantum automata are employed in the modeling of systems and certain closed subspaces of state (Hilbert) spaces are used as the atomic…
