This paper presents a methodology for temporal logic verification of discrete-time stochastic systems. Our goal is to find a lower bound on the probability that a complex temporal property is satisfied by finite traces of the system.…

The paper presents a methodology for temporal logic verification of continuous-time switched stochastic systems. Our goal is to find the lower bound on the probability that a complex temporal property is satisfied over a finite time…

Systems managing Verifiable Credentials are becoming increasingly popular. Unfortunately, their support for revoking previously issued credentials allows verifiers to effectively monitor the validity of the credentials, which is sensitive…

We consider a communication network over which transmissions must fulfill the so-called token bucket traffic specification, with a rollout (i.e., predictive) controller that both schedules transmissions and computes the corresponding…

A blockchain, during its lifetime, records large amounts of data, that in a common usage its kept on its entirety. In a robotics environment, the old information is useful for human evaluation, or oracles interfacing with the blockchain but…

Standard Time-to-Live (TTL) cache management prescribes the storage of entire files, or possibly fractions thereof, for a given amount of time after a request. As a generalization of this approach, this work proposes the storage of a…

This paper addresses the quantitative verification of finite-time constrained occupation time for stochastic continuous-time systems governed by stochastic differential equations (SDEs). Unlike classical reachability analysis, which focuses…

A way of finding interesting or exceptional records from instant-stamped temporal data is to consider their "durability," or, intuitively speaking, how well they compare with other records that arrived earlier or later, and how long they…

Temporal Logic (TL) guided control problems have gained interests in recent years. By using the TL, one can specify a wide range of temporal constraints on the system and is widely used in cyber-physical systems. On the other hand, Control…

Multi-tenant AI inference platforms must balance resource utilization against service-level guarantees under variable demand. Conventional approaches fail to achieve this balance: dedicated endpoints strand capacity on idle models, while…

We propose and study StkTokens: a new calling convention that provably enforces well-bracketed control flow and local state encapsulation on a capability machine. The calling convention is based on linear capabilities: a type of…

Metric Temporal Logic (MTL) and Timed Propositional Temporal Logic (TPTL) extend Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) for real-time constraints, with MTL using time-bounded modalities and TPTL employing freeze quantifiers. Satisfiability for both is…

We study the security of a specific authentication procedure of interest in the context of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). It works as follows: use a secret but fixed Strongly Universal$_2$ (SU$_2$) hash function and encrypt the output tag…

Cloud storage systems have been introduced to provide a scalable, secure, reliable, and highly available data storage environment for the organizations and end-users. Therefore, the service provider should grow in a geographical extent.…

In this paper we consider upper and lower constraining users' service rates in a slotted, cross-layer scheduler context. Such schedulers often cannot guarantee these bounds, despite the usefulness in adhering to Quality of Service (QoS)…

Time-bound stablecoins are DeFi assets that temporarily tokenize traditional securities during market off-hours, enabling continuous cross-market liquidity. We introduce the Liquidity-of-Time Premium (TLP): the extra return or cost of…

This paper focuses on synthesizing control policies for discrete-time stochastic control systems together with a lower bound on the probability that the systems satisfy the complex temporal properties. The desired properties of the system…

Motivated by the increasing prominence of loosely-coupled systems, such as mobile and sensor networks, which are characterised by intermittent connectivity and volatile data, we study the tagging of data with so-called expiration times.…

HyperLTL, the extension of Linear Temporal Logic by trace quantifiers, is a uniform framework for expressing information flow policies by relating multiple traces of a security-critical system. HyperLTL has been successfully applied to…

Temporal hyperproperties are system properties that relate multiple execution traces. For (finite-state) hardware, temporal hyperproperties are supported by model checking algorithms, and tools for general temporal logics like HyperLTL…
