EECI 2012: Computer Session: TuLiP

This lecture provides an overview of TuLiP, a Python-based software toolbox for the synthesis of embedded control software that is provably correct with respect to a GR[1] specifications. TuLiP combines routines for (1) finite state abstraction of control systems, (2) digital design synthesis from GR[1] specifications, and (3) receding horizon planning. The underlying digital design synthesis routine treats the environment as adversary; hence, the resulting controller is guaranteed to be correct for any admissible environment profile. TuLiP applies the receding horizon framework, allowing the synthesis problem to be broken into a set of smaller problems, and consequently alleviating the computational complexity of the synthesis procedure, while preserving the correctness guarantee.
A brief overview of TuLiP will be followed by hands-on exercises using the toolbox.
