Our tool TACoS was published at the Elsevier Journal Science of Computer Programming (Hofmann and Schupp).

Abstract

TACoS is a tool for synthesizing controllers against specifications of undesired behavior with timing constraints. Given a timed automaton and an MTL specification, the tool synthesizes a controller that guarantees that every possible execution of the system satisfies the given specification. TACoS comes with a C++ library with a simple-to-use API and can read from and write to human-readable text input and output. In this paper, we outline the approach of the tool and present two examples in further detail.
