Towards Partial Order Reduction for Model Checking Temporal Epistemic Logic
[chapter]
2009
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We investigate partial order reduction for model checking multi-agent systems by focusing on interleaved interpreted systems. ...
We present a notion of stuttering-equivalence, and prove the semantical equivalence of stuttering-equivalent traces with respect to linear and branching time temporal logics for knowledge without the next ...
Partial order reductions As mentioned above, the idea of verification by model checking with partial order reduction is to define an algorithm that given a model can produce a smaller model provably validating ...

Symbolic model checking for temporal-epistemic logics
2007
ACM SIGACT News
We survey some of the recent work in verification via symbolic model checking of temporal-epistemic logic. ...
Specifically, we discuss OBDD-based and SAT-based approaches for epistemic logic built on discrete and real-time branching time temporal logic. ...
Several tools have been developed for model checking temporal logics, including: SPIN [28] for on-the-fly automata-based approach combined with partial-order reductions for LTL, SMV and NuSMV [47, 11 ...

Computation as Conversation
[chapter]
2008
New Computational Paradigms
Against the backdrop of current research into 'logical dynamics' of information, we discuss twoway connections between conversation and computation, leading to a broader perspective on both. ...
Besides standard model checking and satisfiability,
there may be other natural complexity issues for dynamic-epistemic logics. ...
Model checking We start with model checking, i.e., determining whether M, s |= for a given model M and formula . ...

Open Problems in Logical Dynamics
[chapter]
2006
Mathematical Problems from Applied Logic I
Eventually, this calls for a merge of epistemic and a temporal logic which allows for statements of regularities over time, often in the form of 'protocols' (Section 7). ...
But other significant questions concern mathematical modeling, finding perspicuous formal mechanisms for information update, or temporal evolution, or say, the logical behaviour of different types of agent ...
The axioms for D G φ also resemble standard modal ones.
. 5 Complexity Model checking of epistemic formulas in a given finite models takes polynomial time P, just as for modal formulas in general. ...

Dynamic logic for belief revision
2007
Journal of Applied Non-Classical Logics
First, we obtain complete logics for concrete mechanisms of belief revision, based on compositional reduction axioms. ...
Next, we show how various abstract postulates for belief revision can be analyzed by standard modal frame correspondences for model-changing operations. ...

Towards Partial Order Reductions for Strategic Ability
2020
The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
More importantly, we develop a methodology for partial order reduction in verification of agents with imperfect information. ...
We also demonstrate the effectiveness of the reduction on a number of benchmarks. Interestingly, the reduction does not work for strategic abilities under perfect information. ...

Model Checking Distributed Systems against Temporal-Epistemic Specifications
[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We study this domain by analysing ABS, an executable modelling language for object-based distributed systems and present a symbolic model checking methodology for verifying ABS programs against temporal-epistemic ...
Specifically, we show how to map an ABS program into an ISPL program for verification with MCMAS, a model checker for multi-agent systems. ...

Model Checkers Are Cool: How to Model Check Voting Protocols in Uppaal
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we propose that the state-of-art model checker Uppaal provides a good environment for modelling and preliminary verification of voting protocols. ...
To illustrate this, we present an Uppaal model of Pr\^et \'a Voter, together with some natural extensions. ...
An additional, technical contribution consists in a reduction from model checking of temporal-epistemic specifications to purely temporal ones, in order to verify a variant of receipt-freeness despite ...

The information in intuitionistic logic

Synthese
We discuss connections between intuitionistic models and recent protocol models for dynamic-epistemic logic, as well as more general issues that emerge. ...
By now, the dominant version of this idea are intuitionistic Kripke models (Kripke 1963) , which we will take here as partial orders M = (W, ≤, V ) with a valuation V , setting: Here, in line with the ...

Dynamic Epistemic Logic Games with Epistemic Temporal Goals
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
In this work we show that the decidability results obtained for reachability objectives extend to a much more general class of winning conditions, namely those expressible in the epistemic temporal logic ...
These games have been studied for reachability objectives, where the aim is to reach a situation satisfying some epistemic property expressed in epistemic logic; several (un)decidability results have been ...
We conjecture that our techniques could extend to even more expressive winning conditions, such as ones expressible in epistemic mu-calculus. ...
