We present the universe model,a new approach to concurrencymanagement that isolates concurrency concerns and represents them in the modular interface of a component. This approach...
A critical resource in a distributed real-time system is its shared communication medium. Unrestrained concurrent access to the network can lead to collisions that reduce the syst...
Defence trees and CP-net (ceteris paribus network) are two useful approaches that can be used to help a system administrator to analyze a security scenario and to give him a model ...
Abstract. Grids are very complex and volatile infrastructures that exhibit parallel and distributed characteristics. To harness their complexity as well as the increasing intricacy...
Model-checking has turned out to be an efficient and relatively easy-to-use technique in the verification of formally described programs. However, there is one major drawback in u...
