Control design for specifications on stochastic hybrid systems

Maryam Kamgarpour

We synthesize controllers for discrete-time stochastic hybrid systems such that the probability of satisfying a given specification on the system is maximized. The specifications are defined with finite state automata. It is shown that automata satisfactio ...

The Kaldi Speech Recognition Toolkit

Petr Motlicek

We describe the design of Kaldi, a free, open-source toolkit for speech recognition research. Kaldi provides a speech recognition system based on finite-state automata (using the freely available OpenFst), together with detailed documentation and a compreh ...

Symbolic execution of Reo circuits using constraint automata

Hossein Hojjat

Reo is a coordination language that can be used to model different systems. We propose a technique for symbolic execution of Reo circuits using the symbolic representation of data constraints in Constraint Automata. This technique enables us to obtain the ...

State Machine Replication

Nuno Filipe de Sousa Santos

Since their invention more than half a century ago, computers have gone from being just an handful of expensive machines each filling an entire room, to being an integral part of almost every aspect of modern life. Nowadays computers are everywhere: in our ...

Rank-Deficient Quadratic-Form Maximization Over M-Phase Alphabet: Polynomial-Complexity Solvability And Algorithmic Developments

Anastasios Kyrillidis

The maximization of a positive (semi) definite complex quadratic form over a finite alphabet is NP-hard and achieved through exhaustive search when the form has full rank. However, if the form is rank-deficient, the optimal solution can be computed with on ...

Formalizing and verifying transactional memories

Vasu Singh

Transactional memory (TM) has shown potential to simplify the task of writing concurrent programs. TM shifts the burden of managing concurrency from the programmer to the TM algorithm. The correctness of TM algorithms is generally proved manually. The goal ...

Quantitative Languages

Laurent Doyen

Quantitative generalizations of classical languages, which assign to each word a real number instead of a Boolean value, have applications in modeling resource-constrained computation. We use weighted automata (finite automata with transition weights) to d ...

Expressiveness And Closure Properties For Quantitative Languages

Laurent Doyen

Weighted automata are nondeterministic automata with numerical weights on transitions. They can define quantitative languages L that assign to each word w a real number L(w). In the case of infinite words, the value of a run is naturally computed as the ma ...

Completeness and Nondeterminism in Model Checking Transactional Memories

Rachid Guerraoui, Vasu Singh

Abstract. Software transactional memory (STM) offers a disciplined concurrent programming model for exploiting the parallelism of modern processor architectures. This paper presents the first deterministic specification automata for strict serializability ...
