Abstract: | Decision diagrams of various types can be used to encode the exact state space and transition rate matrix of large Markov models. However, the exact solution of such models still requires to store at least one real vector with one entry per reachable state, a formidable limitation to the practical use of these encodings. Thus, we discuss automatic techniques for the approximate computation of performance measures when the Markov model can be compactly encoded but not exactly solved.
