Abstract

In this paper, we strengthen two recent undecidability results about weighted timed automata, an extension of timed automata with cost variables. More precisely, we propose new encodings of a Minsky machine that only require three clocks and one stopwatch cost, while previous reductions required five clocks and one stopwatch cost.
