Autonomous robotic systems are complex, hybrid, and often safety critical; this makes their
formal specification and verification uniquely challenging. Though commonly used, testing …

We present a computational framework for automatic synthesis of control and
communication strategies for a robotic team from task specifications that are given as regular …

In this paper the problem of cooperative task planning of multi-agent systems when timed
constraints are imposed to the system is investigated. We consider timed constraints given …

A major goal in robot motion planning and control is to be able to specify a task in a high-
level, expressive language and have the robot (s) to automatically convert the specification …

We develop a technique to automatically generate a control policy for a robot moving in an
environment that includes elements with partially unknown, changing behavior. The robot is …

In this paper, we develop a computational framework for fully automatic deployment of a
team of unicycles from a global specification given as an LTL formula over some regions of …

In this paper, we propose decentralized control of networks of discrete-time nonlinear control
systems, enforcing complex specifications expressed in terms of regular languages, within …

This paper presents a fully automated procedure for controller synthesis for multi-agent
systems under coupling constraints. Each agent has dynamics consisting of two terms: the …

In this paper, we propose a hierarchical mission planner where the state of the world and of
the mission are abstracted into corresponding states of a Markov Decision Process (MDP) …

Formal Methods are mathematically-based techniques for software design and engineering,
which enable the unambiguous description of and reasoning about a system's behaviour …
