Talks at UTokyo: Georgios Fainekos (Tue 17), Liang-Ting Chen (Wed 18)
by Ichiro Hasuo 16 Jun '14

16 Jun '14

Dear colleagues, It is my pleasure to announce two talks given by visitors to our group: Georgios Fainekos (tomorrow) on cyber-physical systems; and Liang-Ting Chen (Wed) on categorical and coalgebraic logic. No registration is needed; see you there! Best regards, Ichiro Hasuo Group MMM, University of Tokyo http://www-mmm.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/?plain=false&lang=en&pos=seminar ------------------------------ Tue 17 Jun 2014, 13:00-14:00 Georgios Fainekos <http://www.public.asu.edu/~gfaineko/> (Arizona State University), Temporal Logic Testing and Verification for Cyber-Physical Systems 理学部7号館1階 102教室 Room 102, School of Science Bldg. No. 7 アクセス： https://www-mmm.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/indexj.html （一番下） Access: http://www-mmm.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/ (see bottom) One of the important challenges in the Model Based Development (MBD) of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) is the problem of verifying functional system properties. In its general form, the verification problem is undecidable due to the interplay between continuous and discrete system dynamics. In this talk, we present the bounded-time temporal logic testing and verification problem for CPS. Temporal logics can formally capture both state-space and real-time system requirements. For example, temporal logics can mathematically state requirements like "whenever the system switches to first gear, then it should not switch back to second gear within 2.5sec". Our approach in tackling this challenging problem is to convert the verification problem into an optimization problem through a notion of robustness for temporal logics. The robust interpretation of a temporal logic specification over a CPS trajectory quantifies "how much" the system trajectory satisfies or does not satisfy the specification. In general, the resulting optimization problem is non-convex and non-linear, the utility function is not known is closed-form and the search space is uncountable. Thus, stochastic search techniques are employed in order to solve the resulting optimization problem. We have implemented our testing and verification framework into a Matlab (TM) toolbox called S-TaLiRo (System's TemporAl LogIc Robustness). In this talk, we demonstrate that S-TaLiRo can provide answers to challenge problems from the automotive and medical device industries. Georgios Fainekos is an Assistant Professor at the School of Computing, Informatics and Decision Systems (SCIDSE) Engineering at Arizona State University (ASU). He is director of the Cyber-Physical Systems Lab and he is currently affiliated with the Center for Embedded Systems at ASU. He received his Ph.D. in Computer and Information Science from the University of Pennsylvania in 2008 where he was affiliated with the GRASP laboratory. He holds a Diploma degree (B.Sc. & M.Sc.) in Mechanical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens and an M.Sc. degree in Computer and Information Science from the University of Pennsylvania. Before joining ASU he held a Postdoctoral Researcher position at NEC Laboratories America in the System Analysis & Verification Group. He is currently working in the area of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) with focus on formal methods, logic, optimization and control theory with applications to automotive systems, autonomous (ground and aerial) robots and human-robot interaction (HRI). In 2014, Dr. Fainekos received the NSF CAREER award. He was recipient of the 2008 Frank Anger Memorial ACM SIGBED/SIGSOFT Student Award, and the 2013 Best Researcher Junior Faculty award from SCIDSE. ------------------------------ Wed 18 Jun 2014, 16:30-18:00 Liang-Ting Chen <http://uk.linkedin.com/pub/liang-ting-chen/88/749/b5a> (Academia Sinica), On a Categorical Framework for Coalgebraic Modal Logic 理学部7号館1階 102教室 Room 102, School of Science Bldg. No. 7 アクセス： https://www-mmm.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/indexj.html （一番下） Access: http://www-mmm.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/ (see bottom) Two syntax-oriented approaches to coalgebraic modal logic ― Moss’ cover modality and Pattinson’s predicate liftings ― are successful in producing a wide range of modal logics parametric in a Set functor, including modal logics for Kripke frames, Markov chains, Markov processes, and their variants. Both of them can be presented abstractly in a form similar to mathematical SOS by Turi and Plokin, but this line of research was not well-understood yet. In this talk I will treat the abstract formation seriously, and introduce a category of abstract semantics parametric in a contravariant functor that assigns to the state space its collection of predicates with propositional connectives. Various classical notions are formulated categorically. For example, modular constructions are identified as colimits, limits, and compositions of one-step semantics. The compositions and the colimits of (one-step) expressiveness semantics remain (one-step) expressive. In addition, we investigate a canonically-defined logic by its fibres, and show that it is a terminal object for every fibre. By its very formulation, it is straightforward to show above results in this level of generality. In fact, I would like to suggest that it is the right level of abstraction for understanding coalgebraic modal logic. For further details, please see my MFPS paper, available in http://www.cs.cornell.edu/Conferences/MFPS30/MFPS30-prelim.pdf

(The other one is the series of Taiwan Metaphysics Colloquium, established since 2013.) Each event in these two series by and large runs in one/two days only. We usually invite one or two distinguished philosophers/logicians as keynote speakers and 3-4 distinguished scholars from Asian and Australasian regions together with several contributed papers. We hope that the establishment of these two series will make a rewarding and inspiring series of events so as to promote the development of metaphysics and philosophical logic in Asian area, especially in Taiwan. In particular, the aim of the series of Taiwan Philosophical Logic Colloquium is to bring together a group of logical-minded philosophers and a group of logicians with philosophical orientation. We intend, via the establishment of this series, to provide a forum for dialogues amongst philosophers and logicians with regard to a variety of significant issues and topics from philosophical and logical perspective, respectively. The scope of this series of colloquium will cover: philosophical logic (in a broad sense), non-classical logics, algebraic logic, all kinds of semantics/logics relating to philosophical concepts in metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of language, philosophy of logic/mathematics, and their applications in computer science and cognitive science.

みなさま、産業技術総合研究所の北村です。今年11月にルクセンブルクで開催される国際ワークショップ FTSCS2014 の論文募集の案内をお送りいたします。是非論文投稿をご検討下さい。 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers FTSCS 2014 3rd International Workshop on Formal Techniques for Safety-Critical Systems Luxembourg, November 6-7, 2014 (satellite workshop of ICFEM 2014) http://www.ftscs.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- *** Science of Computer Programming special issue *** *** Springer CCIS proceedings *** Aims and Scope: There is an increasing demand in industry to use formal methods to achieve software-independent verification and validation of safety-critical systems, e.g., in fields such as avionics, automotive, medical, and other cyber-physical systems. Newer standards, such as DO-178C (avionics) and ISO 26262 (automotive), emphasize the need for formal methods and model-based development, speeding up the adaptation of such methods in industry. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. In particular, FTSCS strives strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: * case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety-critical systems, including avionics, automotive, medical, and other kinds of safety-critical and QoS-critical systems * methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis, certification, debugging, etc., of complex safety/QoS-critical systems * analysis methods that address the limitations of formal methods in industry (usability, scalability, etc.) * formal analysis support for modeling languages used in industry, such as AADL, Ptolemy, SysML, SCADE, Modelica, etc. * code generation from validated models. The workshop will provide a platform for discussions and the exchange of innovative ideas, so submissions on work in progress are encouraged. Submission: We solicit submissions reporting on: A- original research contributions (15 pages max, LNCS format); B- applications and experiences (15 pages max, LNCS format); C- surveys, comparisons, and state-of-the-art reports (15 pages max, LNCS); D- tool papers (5 pages max, LNCS format); E- position papers and work in progress (5 pages max, LNCS format) related to the topics mentioned above.
