Sequence Diagrams (SDs) have proven useful for describing transaction-oriented systems, and can form a basis for creating statecharts. However, distributed embedded systems require...
Simulation of dynamic systems possessing unilateral frictional contacts is important to many industrial applications. While rigid body models are often employed, it is well establ...
Reactive systems perform their tasks through interaction with their users or with other systems (as parts of a bigger system). An essential requirement for modeling such systems is...
Among related synchronous programming principles, the model of computation of the Polychrony workbench stands out by its capability to give high-level description of systems where...
