On Communicating Automata with Bounded Channels
نویسندگان
چکیده
We review the characterization of communicating finite-state machines whose behaviors have universally or existentially bounded channels. These results rely on the theory of Mazurkiewicz traces. We investigate the question whether channel bound conditions are decidable for a given communicating finite-state machine.

What is Decidable about Perfect Timed Channels?
In this paper, we introduce the model of communicating timed automata (CTA) that extends the classical models of finite-state processes communicating through FIFO perfect channels and timed automata, in the sense that the finite-state processes are replaced by timed automata, and messages inside the perfect channels are equipped with clocks representing their ages. In addition to the standard o...
متن کاملA Kleene theorem and model checking algorithms for existentially bounded communicating automata
The behavior of a network of communicating automata is called existentially bounded if communication events can be scheduled in such a way that the number of messages in transit is always bounded by a value that depends only on the machine, not the run itself. We show a Kleene theorem for existentially bounded communicating automata, namely the equivalence between communicating automata, global...
متن کاملAutomata and Logics for Timed Message Sequence Charts
We provide a framework for distributed systems that impose timing constraints on their executions. We propose a timed model of communicating finite-state machines, which communicate by exchanging messages through channels and use event clocks to generate collections of timed message sequence charts (T-MSCs). As a specification language, we propose a monadic secondorder logic equipped with timin...
متن کاملVerification of Parameterized Communicating Automata via Split-Width
We study verification problems for distributed systems communicating via unbounded FIFO channels. The number of processes of the system as well as the communication topology are not fixed a priori. Systems are given by parameterized communicating automata (PCAs) which can be run on any communication topology of bounded degree, with arbitrarily many processes. Such systems are Turing powerful so...
متن کاملAnalysis of Communicating Automata
This extended abstract is a survey of some of the recent developments in the area of automated verification dedicated to the analysis of communicating automata. Communicating automata are a fundamental computational model for concurrent systems, where processes cooperate via asynchronous message passing using unbounded channels. They are a popular model for representing and reasoning about comm...
