Decidability of One-Clock Weighted Timed Games with Arbitrary Weights

Decidability of One-Clock Weighted Timed Games with Arbitrary Weights

Blog Article

Weighted Timed Games (WTG for short) are the most widely used model to describe controller synthesis toys problems involving real-time issues.Unfortunately, they are notoriously difficult, and undecidable in general.As a consequence, one-clock WTGs have attracted a lot of attention, especially because they are known to be decidable when only non-negative weights are allowed.However, when arbitrary weights are considered, despite several recent lunchbag works, their decidability status was still unknown.

In this paper, we solve this problem positively and show that the value function can be computed in exponential time (if weights are encoded in unary).
