	Title	Automatic Synthesis of Controllers from Formal Specifications			Type	Conference Article
	Year	1998	Publication	Proc of 2nd IEEE International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods (ICFEM)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	134-143
	Keywords
	Abstract	Many safety critical reactive systems are indeed embedded control systems. Usually a control system can be partitioned into two main subsystems: a controller and a plant. Roughly speaking: the controller observes the state of the plant and sends commands (stimulus) to the plant to achieve predefined goals. We show that when the plant can be modeled as a deterministic finite state system (FSS) it is possible to effectively use formal methods to automatically synthesize the program implementing the controller from the plant model and the given formal specifications for the closed loop system (plant+controller). This guarantees that the controller program is correct by construction. To the best of our knowledge there is no previously published effective algorithm to extract executable code for the controller from closed loop formal specifications. We show practical usefulness of our techniques by giving experimental results on their use to synthesize C programs implementing optimal controllers (OCs) for plants with more than 109 states.

	Title	Formally Modeling a Metal Processing Plant and its Closed Loop Specifications			Type	Conference Article
	Year	1999	Publication	4th IEEE International Symposium on High-Assurance Systems Engineering (HASE)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	151
	Keywords
	Abstract	We present a case study on automatic synthesis of control software from formal specifications for an industrial automation control system. Our aim is to compare the effectiveness (i.e. design effort and controller quality) of automatic controller synthesis from closed loop formal specifications with that of manual controller design followed by automatic verification. The system to be controlled (plant) models a metal processing facility near Karlsruhe. We succeeded in automatically generating C code implementing a (correct by construction) embedded controller for such a plant from closed loop formal specifications. Our experimental results show that for industrial automation control systems automatic synthesis is a viable and profitable (especially as far as design effort is concerned) alternative to manual design followed by automatic verification.

	Title	A Probabilistic Approach to Automatic Verification of Concurrent Systems			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2001	Publication	8th Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	317-324
	Keywords
	Abstract	The main barrier to automatic verification of concurrent systems is the huge amount of memory required to complete the verification task (state explosion). In this paper we present a probabilistic algorithm for automatic verification via model checking. Our algorithm trades space with time. In particular, when memory is full because of state explosion our algorithm does not give up verification. Instead it just proceeds at a lower speed and its results will only hold with some arbitrarily small error probability. Our preliminary experimental results show that by using our probabilistic algorithm we can typically save more than 30% of RAM with an average time penalty of about 100% w.r.t. a deterministic state space exploration with enough memory to complete the verification task. This is better than giving up the verification task because of lack of memory.

	Volume	62	Issue		Pages	229-243
	Keywords
	Abstract	We model a timing attack on web privacy proposed by Felten and Schneider by using three different approaches: HL-Timed Automata, SMV model checker, and tSPA Process Algebra. Some comparative analysis on the three approaches is derived.

	Abstract	We define a probabilistic model for the NRL Pump and using FHP-mur$\varphi$ show experimentally that there exists a probabilistic covert channel whose capacity depends on various NRL Pump parameters (e.g. buffer size, number of samples in the moving average, etc).
