Incompatibility of component interaction styles is identified as a major obstacle to interoperability when using off-the-shelf components or dealing with legacy software in compos...
We provide an algebraic formalisation of connectors in BIP. These are used to structure interactions in a component-based system. A connector relates a set of typed ports. Types a...
The global interaction behavior in message-based systems can be specified as a finite-state machine defining acceptable sequences of messages exchanged by a group of peers. Realiz...
We present a tool for performance modeling of Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs). As mission-critical use of whole-ofgovernment SOAs become pervasive, the capability to model a...
Many areas of modern biology are concerned with the management, storage, visualization, comparison, and analysis of networks. For instance, networks are used to model signal trans...
