State machine based formalisms such as labelled transition systems (LTS) are generally assumed to be complete descriptions m behaviour at some level of abstraction: if a labelled ...
Constructing comprehensive operational models of intended system behaviour is a complex and costly task. Consequently, practitioners have adopted techniques that support increment...
The increasing use of discrete simulation in modelling large and complex systems brings new challenges. One such challenge is the need to devise ways of developing modular approac...
Abstract. We propose an extension of concurrent constraint programming with primitives for process migration within a hierarchical network, and we study its semantics. To this purp...
Behaviour analysis should form an integral part of the software development process. This is particularly important in the design of concurrent and distributed systems, where comp...
