Abstract. We relate two well-studied methodologies in deductive verification of operationally modeled sequential programs, namely the use of inductive invariants and clock functio...
In setting up a formal system to specify a grammar formalism, the conventional (mathematical) wisdom is to start with primitives (basic primitive structures) as simple as possible...
The paper formulates and investigates the aggregation problem for synthesized mediators of Web services (SWMs). An SWM is a finite-state transducer defined in terms of templates...
We consider a problem which was stated in a request for comments made by NIST in the FIPS97 document. The question is the following: Can we have a digital signature public key infr...
This paper investigates how formal techniques can be used for the analysis and verification of hybrid systems [1,5,7,16] -- systems involving both discrete and continuous behavior....
