Nominal calculi have been shown very effective to formally model a variety of computational phenomena. The models of nominal calculi have often infinite states, thus making model ...
A central problem in extending the von Neumann architecture to petaflop computers with millions of hardware threads and with a shared memory is defining the memory model [Lam79,...
Complex software systems possess concurrent and reactive behaviors requiring precise specifications prior to development. Lamport's transition axiom method is a formal specif...
