Key points

A short piece on the assumptions, modeling choices, and practical relevance behind this topic.

  • Autonomous-systems discussions pushed the work beyond abstract modelling toward deployment constraints.
  • Uncertainty modelling became more concrete when tied to strategy synthesis rather than treated as a generic formal-methods topic.
  • The stay broadened the MISSION collaboration into a stronger dependable-CPS research thread.
