Experimental Evaluation of Acacia-K: A Tool for Synthesis of Reactive Systems from KLTL+ Specifications

Acacia-K is a tool that solves the synthesis problem for the positive fragment of epistemic temporal logic (KLTL). We briefly describe the implemented algorithm and our test cases. The tool is an extension of Acacia+ that solves the synthesis problem for epistemic temporal specifications where the resulting strategies need memory. To stress more the importance of such implementation, in this paper we compare Acacia-K with MCMAS-SLK, an open-source model-checker supporting the verification of interactive systems against specifications written in a variant of strategy logic under memoryless setting. The results obtained prove the feasibility of our method and represent an encouraging (and necessary) step towards developing implementable procedures for the entire logic KLTL.
