Vector timestamps provide a way of recording the causal relationships between events in a distributed computation. We draw attention to a limitation of such timestamps when used t...
Execution behavior of a Java application can be nondeterministic due to concurrent threads of execution, thread scheduling, and variable network delays. This nondeterminism in Jav...
High-level formalisms such as stochastic Petri nets can be used to model complex systems. Analysis of logical and numerical properties of these models often requires the generatio...

This paper presents a methodology for parallel and distributed simulation of VHDL using the PDES (parallel discrete-event simulation) paradigm. To achieve better features and perf...
— We propose a new probabilistic temporal logic iLTL which captures properties of systems whose state can be represented by probability mass functions (pmf’s). Using iLTL, we c...
