We show how to automatically construct a system that satisfies a given logical specification and has an optimal average behavior with respect to a specification with ratio costs. When synthesizing a system from a logical specification, it…

The problem of optimal switching between nonlinear autonomous subsystems is investigated in this study where the objective is not only bringing the states to close to the desired point, but also adjusting the switching pattern, in the sense…

We consider the symbolic controller synthesis approach to enforce safety specifications on perturbed, nonlinear control systems. In general, in each state of the system several control values might be applicable to enforce the safety…

Automatic synthesis from linear temporal logic (LTL) specifications is widely used in robotic motion planning, control of autonomous systems, and load distribution in power networks. A common specification pattern in such applications…

We investigate the problem of optimal control synthesis for Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), addressing both qualitative and quantitative objectives. Specifically, we require the system to satisfy a qualitative task specified by a Linear…

In this contribution, we introduce an efficient method for solving the optimal control problem for an unconstrained nonlinear switched system with an arbitrary cost function. We assume that the sequence of the switching modes are given but…

Given a multithreaded program written assuming a friendly, non-preemptive scheduler, the goal of synchronization synthesis is to automatically insert synchronization primitives to ensure that the modified program behaves correctly, even…

We consider the problem of optimal reactive synthesis - compute a strategy that satisfies a mission specification in a dynamic environment, and optimizes a performance metric. We incorporate task-critical information, that is only available…

In this paper, we investigate the problem of synthesizing strategies for linear temporal logic (LTL) specifications that are interpreted over finite traces -- a problem that is central to the automated construction of controllers, robot…

This paper proposes a new highly scalable and asymptotically optimal control synthesis algorithm from linear temporal logic specifications, called $\text{STyLuS}^{*}$ for large-Scale optimal Temporal Logic Synthesis, that is designed to…

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…

In this work, we address the problem of control synthesis for a homogeneous team of robots given a global temporal logic specification and formal user preferences for relaxation in case of infeasibility. The relaxation preferences are…

Though switched dynamical systems have shown great utility in modeling a variety of physical phenomena, the construction of an optimal control of such systems has proven difficult since it demands some type of optimal mode scheduling. In…

Often one has a preference order among the different systems that satisfy a given specification. Under a probabilistic assumption about the possible inputs, such a preference order is naturally expressed by a weighted automaton, which…

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…

The control synthesis of a dynamic system subject to a signal temporal logic (STL) specification is commonly formulated as a mixed-integer linear/convex programming (MILP/MICP) problem. Solving such a problem is computationally expensive…

Early scheduling algorithms usually adjusted the clock cycle duration to the execution time of the slowest operation. This resulted in large slack times wasted in those cycles executing faster operations. To reduce the wasted times…

Stochastic switched systems are a relevant class of stochastic hybrid systems with probabilistic evolution over a continuous domain and control-dependent discrete dynamics over a finite set of modes. In the past few years several different…

In this paper, we present a provably correct controller synthesis approach for switched stochastic control systems with metric temporal logic (MTL) specifications with provable probabilistic guarantees. We first present the stochastic…

Linear-Rate Multi-Mode Systems is a model that can be seen both as a subclass of switched linear systems with imposed global safety constraints and as hybrid automata with no guards on transitions. We study the existence and design of a…
