Learning outcomes

The objective of the class is to describe formal methods to specify, analyze and synthesize discrete-event systems. Such systems encompass discrete heterogeneous and concurrent components at different levels of abstraction, and may be subject to real-time constraints and interact with continuous environments both natural and artificial. At the end the student will be able to demonstrate basic expertise about formalisms and algorithms to specify, analyze and synthesize discrete-event systems according to the paradigm of model-based design. This expertise will enable the student to: i) represent discrete-event systems by means of languages, finite-state automata and machines, Petri nets, hybrid automata; ii) analyze their behaviour by formal methods (structural and behavioural, exact and approximate); iii) synthesize supervisory controllers of plants described by finite automata with uncontrollable and unobservable events; iv) analyze the behaviour of simple hybrid systems with continuous and discrete dynamics. At the end of the class the student will be able to: i) evaluate autonomously advantages and disadvantages of different choices of specification formalisms, and of algorithms for the analysis and synthesis of discrete-event systems; ii) work together with application-domain specialists to choose the formal model suitable for the specification, analysis and control of a given system; iii) carry on independent study of formal methods for discrete-event systems both for industrial applications and scientific advancement.
