Abstract. A stochastic extension of COWS is presented. First the formalism is given an operational semantics leading to finitely branching transition systems. Then its syntax and ...
In this paper we show how Rate Transition Systems (RTSs) can be used as a unifying framework for the definition of the semantics of stochastic process algebras. RTSs facilitate the...

This paper reviews the model of interactive Markov chains (IMCs, for short), an extension of labelled transition systems with exponentially delayed transitions. We show that IMCs a...
Abstract. This paper shows how multiagent systems can be modeled by a combination of UML statecharts and hybrid automata. This allows formal system cation on different levels of ab...

This paper presents an approach for specifying complex, structured systems with Evolving Algebras by means of aggregation and composition. Evolving algebras provide a formal method...
