In this paper, in discrete-event systems modeled by finite-state automata (FSAs), we show new thinking on the tools of detector and concurrent composition and derive two new algorithms for verifying strong periodic detectability (SPD) without any assumption that run in NL; we also reconsider the tool of observer and derive a new algorithm for verifying strong periodic D- detectability (SPDD) without any assumption that runs in PSPACE. These results strengthen the NL upper bound on verifying SPD and the PSPACE upper bound on verifying SPDD for deadlock-free and divergence-free FSAs in the literature.
