We consider a multi-adversary version of the supervisory control problem for discrete-event systems, in which an adversary corrupts the observations available to the supervisor. The supervisor's goal is to enforce a specific language in…

We investigate the enforcement of opacity in discrete-event systems via supervisory control. A system is said to be opaque if a passive intruder can never unambiguously infer whether the system is in a secret state through its observations.…
