Design of a Distributed Reachability Algorithm for Analysis of Linear Hybrid Automata
arXiv:0710.3764
Abstract
This paper presents the design of a novel distributed algorithm d-IRA for the reachability analysis of linear hybrid automata. Recent work on iterative relaxation abstraction (IRA) is leveraged to distribute the computational problem among multiple computational nodes in a non-redundant manner by performing careful infeasibility analysis of linear programs corresponding to spurious counterexamples. The d-IRA algorithm is resistant to failure of multiple computational nodes. The experimental results provide promising evidence for the possible successful application of this technique.
