We develop a new component analysis framework, the Noisy-Or Component Analyzer (NOCA), that targets high-dimensional binary data. NOCA is a probabilistic latent variable model tha...
Abstract. Formal methods, in particular model checking, are increasingly accepted as integral part of system development. With large software systems beyond the range of fully auto...

Abstract. We describe a group membership protocol, called the timewheel group membership protocol, for a timed asynchronous distributed system. This protocol is a part of the timew...
Abstract This paper is sort of a confession. Issues of synchrony, asynchrony, and synchronization, arise frequently in designing embedded systems from components, like everyone I k...
Most large-scaled software systems are structured in distributed components to manage complexity and have to cope with concurrent executed threads. System decomposition and concur...
