Abstract. Design by contract is a well known theory that views software construction as based on contracts between clients (callers) and suppliers (routines), relying on mutual obl...
Recent work establishes a direct link between the complexity of a linear logic proof in terms of the exchange rule and the topological complexity of its corresponding proof net, ex...
Abstract. To analyze the correctness and the performance of a program, information about the dynamic behavior of all participating processes is needed. The dynamic behavior can be ...
Availability and performance can be improved using data replication as the basic technique, thus benefitting the services provided by a distributed system. However, replication im...
