We consider the problem of automatically verifying that a parameterized family of probabilistic concurrent systems terminates with probability one for all instances against adversarial schedulers. A parameterized family defines an infinite-state system: for each number n, the fam…
In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to learn a Buchi automaton from a teacher who knows an \(\omega \)-regular language. The algorithm is based on learning a formalism named family of DFAs (FDFAs) recently proposed by Angluin and Fisman [10]. The main catch is that we use…
We introduce ARES, an efficient approximation algorithm for generating optimal plans action sequences that take an initial state of a Markov Decision Process MDP to a state whose cost is below a specified convergence threshold. ARES uses Particle Swarm Optimization, with adaptive…

We prove that certain formulations of program synthesis and reachability are equivalent. Specifically, our constructive proof shows the reductions between the template-based synthesis problem, which generates a program in a pre-specified form, and the reachability problem, which …

Optimization Modulo Theories $$\text {OMT}$$ is an extension of SMT which allows for finding models that optimize given objectives. Partial weighted MaxSMT---or equivalently $$\text {OMT}$$ with Pseudo-Boolean objective functions, $$\text {OMT+PB}$$ --- is a very-relevant strict …
What properties about the internals of a program explain the possible differences in its overall running time for different inputs? In this paper, we propose a formal framework for considering this question we dub trace-set discrimination. We show that even though the algorithmic…

In an algorithmic complexity attack, a malicious party takes advantage of the worst-case behavior of an algorithm to cause denial-of-service. A prominent algorithmic complexity attack is regular expression denial-of-service (ReDoS), in which the attacker exploits a vulnerable reg…
