Abstract:
We consider two-player stochastic games over real-time probabilistic
processes where the winning objective is specified by a timed
automaton. The goal of player I is to play in such a way that the
play (a timed word) is accepted by the timed automaton with probability
one. Player II aims at the opposite. We prove that whenever
player I has a winning strategy, then she also has a strategy that
can be specified by a timed automaton. The strategy automaton reads the
history of a play, and the decisions taken by the strategy depend only on
the region of the resulting configuration. We also give an
exponential-time algorithm which computes a winning timed automaton
strategy if it exists.
