Hyper parametric timed CTL
Hyperproperties enable simultaneous reasoning about multiple execution traces of a system and are useful to reason about non-interference, opacity, robustness, fairness, observational determinism, etc. We introduce hyper parametric timed computation tree logic (HyperPTCTL), extending hyperlogics with timing reasoning and, notably, parameters to express unknown values. We mainly consider its nest-free fragment, where temporal operators cannot be nested. However, we allow extensions that enable counting actions and comparing the duration since the most recent occurrence of specific actions. We show that our nest-free fragment with this extension is sufficiently expressive to encode properties, e.g., opacity, (un)fairness, or robust observational (non-)determinism. We propose semi-algorithms for model checking and synthesis of parametric timed automata (an extension of timed automata with timing parameters) against this nest-free fragment with the extension via reduction to PTCTL model checking and synthesis. While the general model checking (and thus synthesis) problem is undecidable, we show that a large part of our extended (yet nest-free) fragment is decidable, provided the parameters only appear in the property, not in the model. We also exhibit additional decidable fragments where parameters within the model are allowed. We implemented our semi-algorithms on top of the IMITATOR model checker, and performed experiments. Our implementation supports most of the nest-free fragments (beyond the decidable classes). The experimental results highlight our method’s practical relevance.
