We consider the synthesis problem on timed automata with B\"uchi objectives, where delay choices made by a controller are subjected to small perturbations. Usually, the controller needs to avoid punctual guards, such as testing the equality…

The problem of time-constrained multi-agent task scheduling and control synthesis is addressed. We assume the existence of a high level plan which consists of a sequence of cooperative tasks, each of which is associated with a deadline and…

Automata representing game-semantic models of programs are meant to operate in environments whose input-output behaviour is constrained by the rules of a game. This can lead to a notion of equivalence between states which is weaker than the…
