4. GASICS Workshop4 Controller synthesis with partial observation Consider that controller doesn’t have full information about the current state of a system Observation is a valuation of a finite number of state-based boolean predicates (sensors) We allow predicates of the form: (L1 or L2 or L3) and (1≤x<2) Controller makes its decisions based on history of the observations seen so far Controller sees only changes on observations => stuttering-invariant strategy
