AbstractIn the last decade Alur and Dill introduced a model of automata on timed ω-sequences which extends the traditional models of finite automata. In this paper, we present a theory of timed ω-trees which extends both the theory of timed ω-sequences and the theory of ω-trees. The main motivation is to introduce a new way of specifying real-time systems and provide tools for studying decidability problems in related fields. We focus on the decision problems and their applications in system verification and synthesis.
