The events of a security protocol and their causal dependency can play an important role in the analysis of security properties. This insight underlies both strand spaces and the ...
This paper describes a simulation tool for the analysis of complex jobs described in the form of task graphs. The simulation procedure relies on the PN-based topological represent...
We present a tutorial on verification of safety properties for parameterized systems. Such a system consists of an arbitrary number of processes; the aim is to prove correctness of...
: The specification of the dynamic behaviour of reactive distributed systems must exhibit the structures of control and has to imply explicitly the relevant aspects of the distribu...
In this paper we define the concept of conversation policies: declarative specifications that govern communications between software agents using an agent communication language. ...
