异步多进程时间自动机的可覆盖性问题

Coverability Problem of Asynchronous Multi-Process Timed Automata

已有的实时系统模型无法动态创建新进程.为此,基于时间自动机模型,提出了异步多进程时间自动机模型,将每个进程抽象为进程时间自动机,其部分状态能够触发新进程.考虑到队列会导致模型图灵完备,进程都被缓存在集合中,但仍可建模许多实时系统.通过将其编码到可读边时间Petri网,证明了该模型的可覆盖性问题可判定.

Existing models for real-time system are not able to create new process at runtime dynamically. This paper proposes a new model named asynchronous multi-process timed automata based on timed automata. Each process is abstracted as a process timed automata, and new process is triggered by parts of the states. Consider that queuing can make the model Turing complete, processes are buffered in a set. However the model is still powerful enough to model many real-time systems. The paper proves that model＇s coverability is decidable by encoding it to read-arc timed petri net.
