Abstract. Formal methods emphasizes the need for a top-down approach when developing large reliable software systems. Refinements are map step by step abstract algebraic specificat...
We present a performance-oriented refinement approach that refines a perfectly synchronous communication model onto Network-on-Chip (NoC) communication. We first identify four bas...
Abstract. We present an approach to security requirements engineering, which makes use of special kinds of problem frames that serve to structure, characterize, analyze, and solve ...
Abstract. We consider the problem of refinement checking for asynchronous processes where refinement corresponds to stutter-closed language inclusion. Since an efficient algorithmi...
In this paper we outline an approach for modeling election processes and then performing rigorous analysis to verify that these process models meet selected behavioral requirement...
