Model checking is a promising approach to automatic verification, which has concentrated on specification expressed in temporal logic. Comparatively little attention has been give...
Though multiagent systems (MASs) are being increasingly used, few methods exist to ensure survivability of MASs. All existing methods suffer from two flaws. First, a centralized su...
: This paper describes a method aiming to support the design of interactive-safety critical systems. The method proposes an original integration of approaches usually considered se...
In this paper, we propose an incremental construction approach for distributed system specifications. These specifications are structured as a parallel composition of subsystem sp...
In a distributed system, a number of application tasks may need to be assigned to different processors such that the system cost is minimized and the constraints with limited reso...
