Optimal Paths In Weighted Timed Automata, Rajeev Alur, Salvatore La Torre, George J. Pappas Mar 2012

Optimal Paths In Weighted Timed Automata, Rajeev Alur, Salvatore La Torre, George J. Pappas

George J. Pappas

We consider the optimal-reachability problem for a timed automaton with respect to a linear cost function which results in a weighted timed automaton. Our solution to this optimization problem consists of reducing it to computing (parametric) shortest paths in a finite weighted directed graph. We call this graph a parametric sub-region graph. It refines the region graph, a standard tool for the analysis of timed automata, by adding the information which is relevant to solving the optimal-reachability problem. We present an algorithm to solve the optimal-reachability problem for weighted timed automata that takes time exponential in O(n (|δ(A)|+|wmax|)), where n …
