SYNTCOMP 2022 Results

The results of the 2022 competition on Reactive Synthesis are in! As in previous years, the competition was run on StarExec. This year, the competition consisted of LTL tracks, with specifications in TLSF, and parity-game tracks, with specifications given in extended HOA. It is worth mentioning that we have removed the separation between so-called parallel and sequential tracks in favor of having two rankings based on total Wallclock time vs. total CPU time used by solvers. This year, though, the rankings happen to coincide. For more information on this and other updates to the competition, you can take a look at the most recent report about the competition.

Rankings

We present first the results for the parity-game tracks and then move to the LTL tracks.

Parity games: realizability

To summarize, the ranking of the participating tools is as follows.
  1. Knor
  2. Strix
  3. ltlsynt
More details regarding each solver configuration is given in the table below and the cactus plots that follow (where only the best configuration per tool is shown). The raw information can be fetched from the StarExec job.
