Popis: Some fundamental problems in the class of non-deterministic timed automata, like the problem of inclusion of the language accepted by timed automaton A (e.g., the implementation) in the language accepted by B (e.g., the specification) are, in general, undecidable. In order to tackle this disturbing problem we show how to effectively construct deterministic timed automata \({A}_d\) and \({B}_d\) that are discretizations (digitizations) of the non-deterministic timed automata A and B and differ from the original automata by at most \(\frac{1}{6}\) time units on each occurrence of an event. Language inclusion in the discretized timed automata is decidable and it is also decidable when instead of \(\mathfrak {L}(B)\) we consider \(\overline{\mathfrak {L}(B)}\), the closure of \({\mathfrak {L}(B)}\) in the Euclidean topology: if \(\mathfrak {L}({A}_d) \nsubseteq \mathfrak {L}({B}_d)\) then \(\mathfrak {L}(A) \nsubseteq \mathfrak {L}(B)\) and if \(\mathfrak {L}({A}_d) \subseteq \mathfrak {L}({B}_d)\) then \(\mathfrak {L}(A) \subseteq \overline{\mathfrak {L}(B)}\).
