Abstract

The intention of the paper is to develop an algorithm for timing behaviour analysis of concurrent and real time systems. To this purpose we introduce a notion of the parametric time net that is a modification of the time Petri net [4,7] by using parameter variables in specification of timing constraints on transition firings. A property of the system is given as a formula of Parametric TCTL (PTCTL), a real time branching time temporal logic with timing parameter variables in its operators [6]. Timing behaviour analysis consists in finding necessary and sufficient conditions on parameter values under which the checked PTCTL-formula is valid in the given system. Thus the approach allows 'mutual adjustment' of timing specifications of both the system and the property via a single execution of verification procedure. It is further shown the correctness and evaluated the complexity of the algorithm proposed.
