Model checking is an established technique to formally verify automation systems which are required to be trusted. However, for sufficiently complex systems model checking becomes computationally infeasible. On the other hand, testing,…

In many industrial domains, the Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) is used to exchange simulation models as Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) across different partners using various modelling tools. This opens up the possibilities for…

Probabilistic model checking for systems with large or unbounded state space is a challenging computational problem in formal modelling and its applications. Numerical algorithms require an explicit representation of the state space, while…

Labeled state-to-function transition systems, FuTS for short, are characterized by transitions which relate states to functions of states over general semirings, equipped with a rich set of higher-order operators. As such, FuTS constitute a…

This paper explores verification of constituent systems within the context of the Symphony tool platform for Systems of Systems (SoS). Our SoS modelling language, CML, supports various contractual specification elements, such as state…

Model-based mutation analysis is a recent research area, and real-time system testing can benefit from using model mutants. Model-based mutation testing (MBMT) is a particular branch of model-based testing. It generates faulty versions of a…

Employing model predictive control to systems with unbounded, stochastic disturbances poses the challenge of guaranteeing safety, i.e., repeated feasibility and stability of the closed-loop system. Especially, there are no strict repeated…

We present an approach for verifying systems at runtime. Our approach targets distributed systems whose components communicate with monitors over unreliable channels, where messages can be delayed, reordered, or even lost. Furthermore, our…

The goal of this paper is to analyze Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks from a dynamical system perspective. The classical recursive equations describing the evolution of LSTM can be recast in state space form, resulting in a…

Individual clinical Knowledge Artifacts (KA) are designed to be used in Clinical Decision Support (CDS) systems at the point of care for delivery of safe, evidence-based care in modern healthcare systems. For formal authoring of a KA,…

Operator Precedence Languages (OPL) have been recently identified as a suitable formalism for model checking recursive procedural programs, thanks to their ability of modeling the program stack. OPL requirements can be expressed in the…

Techniques for runtime verification often utilise specification languages that are (i) reasonably expressive, and (ii) relatively abstract (i.e. they operate on a level of abstraction that separates them from the system being monitored).…

Artificial Intelligence problems, ranging form planning/scheduling up to game control, include an essential crucial step: describing a model which accurately defines the problem's required data, requirements, allowed transitions and…

The cutting edge in systems development today is in the area of "systems of systems" (SoS) large networks of inter-related systems that are developed and managed separately, but that also perform collective activities. Such large systems…

For Finite State Machines (FSMs) a rich testing theory has been developed to discover aspects of their behavior and ensure their correct functioning. Although this theory is widely used, e.g., to check conformance of protocol…

Lightweight validation technique, such as those based on random testing, are sometimes practical alternatives to full formal verification -- providing valuable benefits, such as finding bugs, without requiring a disproportionate effort. In…

Signal Temporal Logic monitoring over numerical simulation traces has emerged as an effective approach to approximate verification of continuous and hybrid systems. In this report we explore an exact verification procedure for STL…

Large language models can generate fluent answers that are unfaithful to the provided context, while many safeguards rely on external verification or a separate judge after generation. We introduce \emph{internal flow signatures} that audit…

Model checkers use automated state exploration in order to prove various properties such as reachability, non-reachability, and bisimulation over state transition systems. While model checkers have proved valuable for locating errors in…

Latency-insensitive design mitigates increasing interconnect delay and enables productive component reuse in complex digital systems. This design style has been adopted in high-level design flows because untimed functional blocks connected…
