E cient automatic model checking algorithms for real-time systems have been obtained in recent years based on the state region graph technique of Alur, Courcoubetis and Dill. Howev...
Interaction refers to an abstract and intangible concept. In modelling, intangible concepts can be embodied and made explicit. This allows to manipulate the abstractions and to bui...
Abstract. This paper presents algorithms and data structures that exploit a compositional and hierarchical specification to enable more efficient symbolic modelchecking. We encod...
Abstract. Component-based programming is about how to create application programs from prefabricated components with new software that provides both glue between the components, an...
A formal model called CoAuto (Cooperative Automaton) is proposed ibe and analyze cooperative processes. A basic CoAuto abstracts the behaviors of a single active entity. It separat...
