Integer-Complete Synthesis for Bounded Parametric Timed Automata

Ensuring the correctness of critical real-time systems, involving concurrent behaviors and timing requirements, is crucial. Parameter synthesis aims at computing dense sets of valuations for the timing requirements, guaranteeing a good behavior. However, in most cases, the emptiness problem for reachability (i.e., whether there exists at least one parameter valuation for which some state is reachable) is undecidable and, as a consequence, synthesis procedures do not terminate in general, even for bounded parameters. In this paper, we introduce a parametric extrapolation, that allows us to derive an underapproximation in the form of linear constraints containing all the integer points ensuring reachability or unavoidability, and all the (non-necessarily integer) convex combinations of these integer points, for general PTA with a bounded parameter domain. Our algorithms terminate and can output constraints arbitrarily close to the complete result.
