Efficient Solving of Large Arithmetic Constraint Systems with Complex Boolean Structure
Christian Herde deals with the development of decision procedures as needed, e.g., for automatic verification of hardware and software systems via bounded model checking. He provides methods for efficiently solving formulae comprising complex Boolean combinations of linear, polynomial, and transcendental arithmetic constraints, involving thousands of Boolean-, integer-, and real-valued variables.
Logical Foundations of Cyber-Physical Systems
Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) combine cyber capabilities, such as computation or communication, with physical capabilities, such as motion or other physical processes. Cars, aircraft, and robots are prime examples, because they move physically in space in a way that is determined by discrete computerized control algorithms. Designing these algorithms is challenging due to their tight coupling with physical behavior, while it is vital that these algorithms be correct because we rely on them for safety-critical tasks. This textbook teaches undergraduate students the core principles behind CPSs. It shows them how to develop models and controls; identify safety specifications and critical properties; reason rigorously about CPS models; leverage multi-dynamical systems compositionality to tame CPS complexity; identify required control constraints; verify CPS models of appropriate scale in logic; and develop an intuition for operational effects. The book is supported with homework exercises, lecture videos, and slides.
Recent Advances in Constraints
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed and extended post-workshop proceedings of the 12th Annual ERCIM International Workshop on Constraint Solving and Constraint Logic Programming, CSCLP 2007, held in Rocquencourt, France, in June 2007. The 10 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 16 initial submissions. The papers address all aspects of constraint and logic programming, including foundational issues, implementation techniques, new applications as well as teaching issues. Particular emphasis is placed on assessing the current state of the art and identifying future directions.
Integration of AI and OR Techniques in Constraint Programming for Combinatorial Optimization Problems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Integration of AI and OR Techniques in Constraint Programming for Combinatorial Optimization Problems, CPAIOR 2008, held in Paris, France, in May 2008. The 18 revised long papers and 22 revised short papers presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 130 submissions. The papers describe current research in the fields of constraint programming, artificial intelligence, and operations research to explore ways of solving large-scale, practical optimization problems through integration and hybridization of the fields' different techniques.
Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2009, held in Budapest, Hungary, September 2009. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. The aim of FORMATS is to promote the study of fundamental and practical aspects of timed systems, and to bring together researchers from different disciplines that share interests in the modelling and analysis of timed systems.Typical topics include (but are not limited to): – Foundations and Semantics. Theoretical foundations of timed systems and languages; comparison between dif...
Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation
The book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, VMCAI 2005, held in Paris, France in January 2005. The 27 revised full papers presented together with an invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 92 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on numerical abstraction, verification, heap and shape analysis, abstract model checking, model checking, applied abstract interpretation, and bounded model checking.
Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems

Modelling and Controlling of Behaviour for Autonomous Mobile Robots
As research progresses, it enables multi-robot systems to be used in more and more complex and dynamic scenarios. Hence, the question arises how different modelling and reasoning paradigms can be utilised to describe the intended behaviour of a team and execute it in a robust and adaptive manner. Hendrik Skubch presents a solution, ALICA (A Language for Interactive Cooperative Agents) which combines modelling techniques drawn from different paradigms in an integrative fashion. Hierarchies of finite state machines are used to structure the behaviour of the team such that temporal and causal relationships can be expressed. Utility functions weigh different options against each other and assign agents to different tasks. Finally, non-linear constraint satisfaction and optimisation problems are integrated, allowing for complex cooperative behaviour to be specified in a concise, theoretically well-founded manner.
Fifth IFIP International Conference on Theoretical Computer Science - TCS 2008
International Federation for Information Processing The IFIP series publishes state-of-the-art results in the sciences and technologies of information and communication. The scope of the series includes: foundations of computer science; software theory and practice; education; computer applications in technology; communication systems; systems modeling and optimization; information systems; computers and society; computer systems technology; security and protection in information processing systems; artificial intelligence; and human-computer interaction. Proceedings and post-proceedings of refereed international conferences in computer science and interdisciplinary fields are featured. These results often precede journal publication and represent the most current research. The principal aim of the IFIP series is to encourage education and the dissemination and exchange of information about all aspects of computing.
