We present a novel method for the synthesis of finite state systems that is a generalisation of the generalised reactivity(1) synthesis approach by Piterman, Pnueli and Sa'ar. In particular, we describe an efficient method to synthesize…

Temporal synthesis is the automated design of a system that interacts with an environment, using the declarative specification of the system's behavior. A popular language for providing such a specification is Linear Temporal Logic, or LTL.…

Temporal synthesis attempts to construct reactive programs that satisfy a given declarative (LTL) formula. Practitioners have found it challenging to work exclusively with declarative specifications, and have found languages that combine…

In formal synthesis of reactive systems an implementation of a system is automatically constructed from its formal specification. The great advantage of synthesis is that the resulting implementation is correct by construction; therefore…

In this paper we present an assume-guarantee specification theory (aka interface theory from [14]) for modular synthesis and verification of real-time systems with critical timing constraints. It is a further step of our earlier work [10]…

Most specification languages express only qualitative constraints. However, among two implementations that satisfy a given specification, one may be preferred to another. For example, if a specification asks that every request is followed…

Reactive synthesis, the problem of automatically constructing a hardware circuit from a logical specification, is a long-standing challenge in formal verification. It is elusive for two reasons: It is algorithmically hard, and writing…

In the formal approach to reactive controller synthesis, a symbolic controller for a possibly hybrid system is obtained by algorithmically computing a winning strategy in a two-player game. Such game-solving algorithms scale poorly as the…

The goal of logical controller synthesis is to automatically compute a control strategy that regulates the discrete, event-driven behavior of a given plant s.t. a temporal logic specification holds over all remaining traces. Standard…

One of the main challenges of reactive synthesis, an automated procedure to obtain a correct-by-construction reactive system, is to deal with unrealizable specifications. One means to deal with unrealizability, in the context of GR(1), an…
