We present ResilienC, a framework for resilient control of Cyber-Physical Systems subject to STL-based requirements. ResilienC utilizes a recently developed formalism for specifying CPS resiliency in terms of sets of (rec,dur) real-valued pairs, where rec represents the system's capability to rapidly recover from a property violation (recoverability), and dur is reflective of its ability to avoid violations post-recovery (durability). We define the resilient STL control problem as one of multi-objective optimization, where the recoverability and durability of the desired STL specification are maximized. When neither objective is prioritized over the other, the solution to the problem is a set of Pareto-optimal system trajectories. We present a precise solution method to the resilient STL control problem using a mixed-integer linear programming encoding and an a posteriori ε-constraint approach for efficiently retrieving the complete set of optimally resilient solutions. In ResilienC, at each time-step, the optimal control action selected from the set of Pareto-optimal solutions by a Decision Maker strategy realizes a form of Model Predictive Control. We demonstrate the practical utility of the ResilienC framework on two significant case studies: autonomous vehicle lane keeping and deadline-driven, multi-region package delivery.
