/*
Initial libFAUDES implementation of omega-controlled liveness, tmoor 2011, last used 
for libFAUDES 2.22p. The function retsricts the candidate to states for which a
prefix-closed controller exists such that in closed-loop configuration the acceptance condition
is implied by the plant acceptance condition. This corresponds to the controllable prefix,
originally proposed by J. Thistle et al. The actual implementation, however, is based on a sufficient 
but not necessary test. It therefore identifies a subset of the controllable prefix, which may 
turn out empty even when a prefix-closed controller exists. The below code is obsolete and will 
be removed eventually.

/*
This implementation is a direct transscript of the mu-calculus formulas stated in "Control of 
w-Automata, Church's Problem, and the Emptiness Problem for Tree w-Automata", by J. Thistle and 
W.M. Wonham, 1992, adapted for the special case of deterministic Buchi-automata. Referring to the 
referenced literature, the corresponding iteration is "essentially optimal" in terms of performance. 
In the below implementation, we unwind each individual mu/nu quantifiation literally and resist 
to apply strategic substitutions in order to obtain a reference implementation. This is suspected 
to introduce (linear) penalty for avoidable boolean operations on sets of states. In a recent study, 
Christian Wamser proposed a fine-tuned alternative implementation which will be integrated in 
libFAUDES in due course.

Variant of a controllable prefix under partial observation. This is **experimantal**.
Based on the situation of full observation, this variant records control patterns
used to establish controlled liveness and only accepts a new state if the corresponding
pattern complies all recorded patterns that correspond to the same observation.
The result is a (possibly strict) subset of the controllable prefix for the purpose.
Theoretical background will be provided in due course.
