CIRCA: The Cooperative Intelligent Real-Time Control Architecture

The current versions of CIRCA use formal verification engines, including our own in-house systems and Kronos from VERIMAG. The probabilistic versions of CIRCA also include some of the earliest work on statistical model checking, as reported below.

Research Interests:

Real-Time Intelligent Control, Autonomous Systems, Autonomous Cyber Reasoning Systems, Planning, Scheduling, Reactive Systems, Formal Verification, Model Checking and Statistical Model Checking, Distributed AI, Intelligent Agents, Robotics, Constraint-Based Reasoning, mixed hardware and software projects.
