Abstract

In an earlier paper we presented a pseudometric on the class of reactive probabilistic transition systems, yielding a quantitative notion of behavioural equivalence. The pseudometric is defined via the terminal coalgebra of a functor based on the Hutchinson metric on probability measures. In the present paper we give an algorithm, based on linear programming, to calculate the distance between two states up to prescribed degree of accuracy.
