– Building large software systems out of existing software components can save time and cost. These software components range from architectural and design components to binary c...
In this paper, we present a new framework for the use of Virtual Reality (VR) in engineering design for configuration applications. Traditional VR systems support the visual explo...
Probability features increasingly often in software and hardware systems: it is used in distributed co-ordination and routing problems, to model fault-tolerance and performance, a...
Irreversible computation necessarily results in energy dissipation due to information loss. While small in comparison to the power consumption of today’s VLSI circuits, if curre...
Model checking and other finite-state analysis techniques have been very successful when used with hardware systems and less successful with software systems. It is especially di...
