25 Asynchronous transducer realisability problem Proof b ε a ε b a b b Delay del(u 1, u 2 ) = (l 1 u 1, l 1 u 2 ) l = u 1 u 2 12

26 Asynchronous transducer realisability problem Proof b ε a ε b a b b Delay del(u 1, u 2 ) = (l 1 u 1, l 1 u 2 ) del(a, ε) = (a, ε) 12

27 Asynchronous transducer realisability problem Proof b ε a ε b a b b Delay del(u 1, u 2 ) = (l 1 u 1, l 1 u 2 ) del(a, ε) = (a, ε) = del(aa, a) = (a, ε) 12

28 Asynchronous transducer realisability problem Proof b ε a b b a b b Delay del(u 1, u 2 ) = (l 1 u 1, l 1 u 2 ) del(a, b) = (a, b) del(aa, ba) = (aa, ba) 12

29 Asynchronous transducer realisability problem Proof b ε a b b a b b Critical loop Triple (u, v, X ) s.t.: Delay del(u 1, u 2 ) = (l 1 u 1, l 1 u 2 ) del(a, b) = (a, b) v β i del(aa, ba) = (aa, ba) u α 1. For all D i X, i p i q i 2. For all D i / X, no run on u 3. For two transducers D i, D j X, delays accumulate: del(α i, α j ) del(α i β i, α j β j ) 12

30 Asynchronous transducer realisability problem Proof Recursive characterisation T = k i=1 D i is realisable iff for all critical loops (u, v, X ), there exists Y X s.t.: 1. Delays do not accumulate: D i, D j Y, del(α i, α j ) = del(α i β i, α j β j ) 2. The domain is still covered: u 1 dom(t ) = i P u 1 dom(d i ) 3. The residual specification (u, l) 1 D i is realisable i Y l longest common prefix of the α i s Can be easily checked in ExpTime 13

31 Asynchronous transducer realisability problem Proof Theorem Asynchronous sequential transducer synthesis from multi-sequential specifications is PSpace-complete. PSpace-easiness: a non-recursive characterisation Witness of non-satisfaction Unfolding of the recursive characterisation Reformulation of delay difference Can be found in PSpace PSpace-hardness Similar to the synchronous case 14

32 Conclusion Multi-sequential specifications Membership decidable in PTime Sequential realisability is PSpace-c both in synchronous and asynchronous cases Improvement of the general case: synchronous = ExpTime-c asynchronous = undecidable Synthesis game Practical synthesis algorithm Suitable for any type of specification defined by transducers (might not terminate) 15
