We introduce PLC-Automata as a new class of automata which are tailored to deal with real-time properties of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). These devices are often used in...
The mobile agent approach has become popular due to recent developments in the mobile code paradigm and enabling programming technologies. Many existing agentbased systems lack cl...
For `mixed-criticality' systems that have both critical and non-critical functions, the greatest leverage on dependability may be at the design level. By designing so that ea...
This paper examines the suitability and use of runtime verification as means for monitoring security protocols and their properties. In particular, we employ the runtime verificat...
