TLDR
A general method for proving/deciding equivalences between omega-regular languages, whose recognizers are modified forms of Buchi or Muller-McNaughton automata, derived from Milner's notion of “simulation” is obtained.

An implementation of an efficient algorithm for bisimulation equivalence

TL;DR: This paper describes how the Paige-Tarjan algorithm of complexity O(m log n) has been adapted to minimize labeled transition systems modulo bisimulation equivalence and is used in Aldebaran, a tool for the verification of concurrent systems.

Controlling a Class of Nonlinear Systems on Rectangles

TL;DR: This work derives necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a multiaffine feedback control law keeping the system in a rectangular invariant and shows the application of its results to the problem of controlling the angular velocity of an aircraft with gas jet actuators.

The Join Calculus: A Language for Distributed Mobile Programming

TL;DR: The join calculus as mentioned in this paper is a language that models distributed and mobile programming, characterized by an explicit notion of locality, a strict adherence to local synchronization, and a direct embedding of the ML programming language.

Model Checking Partial State Spaces with 3-Valued Temporal Logics

TL;DR: In this article, a 3-valued interpretation of modal logic formulas on partial Kripke structures is given, where the third truth value ⊥ means "unknown whether true or false".

Approximately bisimilar symbolic models for nonlinear control systems

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that every incrementally globally asymptotically stable nonlinear control system is approximately equivalent (bisimilar) to a symbolic model, where the approximation error is a design parameter in the symbolic model and can be rendered as small as desired.

Finite automata and their decision problems

TL;DR: Finite automata are considered as instruments for classifying finite tapes as well as generalizations of the notion of an automaton are introduced and their relation to the classical automata is determined.

Derivatives of Regular Expressions

TL;DR: In this paper the notion of a derivative of a regular expression is introduced atld the properties of derivatives are discussed and this leads, in a very natural way, to the construction of a state diagram from a regularexpression containing any number of logical operators.

An algebraic definition of simulation between programs

TL;DR: A technique is given and illustrated for proving simulation and equivalence of programs; there is an analogy with Floyd''s technique for proving correctness of programs.

Testing and generating infinite sequences by a finite automaton

TL;DR: Two apparently divergent areas of inquiry should give rise to the same problem, namely, that of describing the infinite history of finite automata, and it is this problem to which the remainder of this paper will address itself.
