Abstract. This paper studies the expressive power of finite-state automata recognizing sets of real numbers encoded positionally. It is known that the sets that are definable in th...
Abstract. During the last years, timed automata have become a popular model for describing the behaviour of real-time systems. In particular, there has been much research on proble...
This paper surveys recent results concerning the inference of deterministic finite automata (DFAs). The results discussed determine the extent to which DFAs can be feasibly inferr...
We explore the notion of alternating two-way tree automata modulo the theory of finitely many associative-commutative (AC) symbols. This was prompted by questions arising in cryp...
We propose a computer-aided methodology to automatically generate time optimal production schemes for chemical batch plants operating in multi-batch mode. Our approach is based on ...
