Intent

The robotic application shall keep the value of the quantitative measure m within the (open) interval [v1, v2] while performing a mission miss.

Template

The following formulae encode the mission in PCTL and CSRL depending on whether the quantitative measure represents the probability of achieving a mission or the reward collected while performing the mission.

PCTL – Probability
$ \mapping(\term{m}\ \lit{strictly within}\ \term{\val 1}\ \lit{and}\ \term{\val 2}\ \term{miss})=\LTLp_{> \terminal{\val} _1}(\mapping(\term{miss})) \wedge \LTLp_{< \terminal{\val} _2}(\mapping(\term{miss})) $
CSRL – Reward
$ \mapping(\term{m}\ \lit{strictly within}\ \term{\val 1}\ \lit{and}\ \term{\val 2}\ \term{miss})= \mathcal{E}_{(\terminal{\val} _1,\infty)} (\mapping(\term{miss})) \wedge \mathcal{E}_{[0,\terminal{\val} _2)} (\mapping(\term{miss})) $
