✦ Synopsis
We study the expressive power of an augmented version of Timed CSP and show that it is precisely equal to that of closed timed automata-timed automata with closed invariant and enabling clock constraints. We also show that this new version of Timed CSP is expressive enough to capture the most widely used specifications on timed systems as refinements between processes, and moreover that refinement checking is amenable to digitisation analysis. As a result, we are able to verify some of the most important timed specifications, including branching-time liveness properties such as timestop-freedom and constant availability, using the model checker FDR (a commercial product of Formal Systems (Europe) Ltd.).

We introduce Concurrent Timed Automata (CTAs) where automata running in parallel are synchronized. We consider the subclasses of CTAs obtained by admitting, or not, diagonal clock constraints and constant updates, and by letting, or not, sequential automata to update the same clocks. We prove that s
We introduce the notion of Timed I/O Components as Timed Automata "à la" Alur \& Dill where an "admissible" I/O interface is declared. That notion has, what we consider, a key modeling property: non-zeno preservation under syntacticallycheckable "I/O compatibility" among interacting components. Also
In the last decade Alur and Dill introduced a model of automata on timed !-sequences which extends the traditional models of ÿnite automata. In this paper, we present a theory of timed !-trees which extends both the theory of timed !-sequences and the theory of !-trees. The main motivation is to int
