One-Counter Nets (OCNs) are finite-state automata equipped with a counter that is not allowed to become negative, but does not have zero tests. Their simplicity and close connection to various other models (e.g., VASS, Counter Machines and…

Intuitively, if we can prove that a program terminates, we expect some conclusion regarding its complexity. But the passage from termination proofs to complexity bounds is not always clear. In this work we consider Monotonicity Constraint…
