چکیده

In this paper, we show how model-checking can be generalized to temporal logic constraint solving, by considering temporal logic formulae with free variables over some domain D, and by computing a validity domain for the variables rather than a truth value for the formula. This allows us to de ne a continuous degree of satisfaction for a temporal logic formula in a given structure, opening up the eld of model-checking to optimization. We illustrate this approach with reverseengineering problems coming from systems biology, and provide some performance gures on parameter optimization problems with respect to temporal logic speci cations.

Simulation Reduction as Constraint

The simulation relation is largely used in Model Checking where it allows to reduce Kripke structures, on which verification takes place, while preserving significant fragments of Temporal Logic. Our approach to the problem of simulation computation here has two aims: on the one hand we want to provide a framework in which developing algorithms competitive with the best ones in the literature, ...

On temporal logic constraint solving for analyzing numerical data time series

Temporal logics and model-checking have proved successful to respectively express biological properties of complex biochemical systems, and automatically verify their satisfaction in both qualitative and quantitative models. In this article, we go beyond model-checking and present a constraint solving algorithm for quantifier-free first-order temporal logic formulae with constraints over the re...

Constraint LTL satisfiability checking without automata

This paper introduces a novel technique to decide the satisfiability of formulae written in the language of Linear Temporal Logic with both future and past operators and atomic formulae belonging to constraint system D (CLTLB(D) for short). The technique is based on the concept of bounded satisfiability, and hinges on an encoding of CLTLB(D) formulae into QF-EUD, the theory of quantifier-free e...

Business process verification with constraint temporal answer set programming

The paper provides a framework for the verification of business processes, based on an extension of answer set programming (ASP) with temporal logic and constraints. The framework allows to capture expressive fluent annotations as well as data awareness in a uniform way. It allows for a declarative specification of a business process but also for encoding processes specified in conventional wor...
