Finite-State Strategies in Regular Infinite Games
نویسنده
چکیده
Abs t rac t . This paper surveys work on the synthesis of reactive programs which implement winning strategies in infinite two-person games. The representation of such games by Muller automata and by game graphs (as introduced by McNaughton) is considered, and the construction of winning strategies is described in three stages, covering "guarantee games", "recurrence games", and generM regular games.

Concurrent Games with Tail Objectives
We study infinite stochastic games played by two-players over a finite state space, with objectives specified by sets of infinite traces. The games are concurrent (players make moves simultaneously and independently), stochastic (the next state is determined by a probability distribution that depends on the current state and chosen moves of the players) and infinite (proceeds for infinite numbe...
متن کاملOptimizing Winning Strategies in Regular Infinite Games
We consider infinite two-player games played on finite graphs where the winning condition (say for the first player) is given by a regular omega-language. We address issues of optimization in the construction of winning strategies in such games. Two criteria for optimization are discussed: memory size of finite automata that execute winning strategies, and – for games with liveness requests as ...
متن کاملBounded Rationality in Concurrent Parity Games
We consider 2-player games played on a finite state space for an infinite number of rounds. The games are concurrent: in each round, the two players (player 1 and player 2) choose their moves independently and simultaneously; the current state and the two moves determine the successor state. We study concurrent games with ω-regular winning conditions specified as parity objectives. We consider ...
متن کاملMemory and delay in regular infinite games
Infinite two-player games constitute a powerful and flexible framework for the design and verification of reactive systems. It is well-known that, for example, the construction of a controller acting indefinitely within its environment can be reduced to the computation of a winning strategy in an infinite game (Pnueli and Rosner, 1989). For the class of regular games, Büchi and Landweber (1969)...
متن کاملAdmissibility in Infinite Games
We analyse the notion of iterated admissibility, i.e., avoidance of weakly dominated strategies, as a solution concept for extensive games of infinite horizon. This concept is known to provide a valuable criterion for selecting among multiple equilibria and to yield sharp predictions in finite games. However, generalisations to the infinite are inherently problematic, due to unbounded dominance...
