We propose a type and effect system for authentication protocols built upon a tagging scheme that formalizes the intended semantics of ciphertexts. The main result is that the val...
Commitment-modeled protocols enable flexible and robust interactions among agents. However, existing work has focused on features and capabilities of protocols without considerin...
Data flow process networks are a good model of computation for streaming multimedia applications incorporating audio, video and/or graphics streams. Process networks are concurre...
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a widely used communication protocol. In this paper, a portion of the protocol is chosen for modeling and verification, namely th...
This paper briefly outlines the main characteristics of an ongoing research aimed at developing a support library for implementing systems based on autonomous agents. The library ...
