Abstract. State-based systems and modal logics for reasoning about them often heterogeneously combine a number of features such as non-determinism and probabilities. Here, we show ...
We present a translation of looping alternating two-way automata into a comparably inexpressive description logic, which is contained in SHIQ. This enables us to perform the empti...
One-counter automata are a fundamental and widely-studied class of infinite-state systems. In this paper we consider one-counter automata with counter updates encoded in binary—...
Abstract. We investigate the possibility of (bi)simulation-like preorder/equivalence checking on the class of visibly pushdown automata and its natural subclasses visibly BPA (Basi...
Hybrid languages are extended modal languages which can refer to (or even quantify over) states. Such languages are better behaved proof theoretically than ordinary modal languages...
