systems are commonly abstracted as collections of interacting components. This perspective has lead to the insight that component behaviors can be defined separately from admissi...
Many reverse-engineering tools have been developed to detract representations from source code. Yet, most of these tools completely ignore recovery of the all-important rationale ...
This paper reviews the development of an interactive evolutionary design system (IEDS) for conceptual design, which integrates an agent based ‘build and evolve’ approach with ...
This paper deals with the modeling and the automatic implementation of constraints in component based applications. Constraints have been assuming an ever more relevant role in mod...

Abstract. We define a probabilistic contract framework for the construction of component-based embedded systems, based on the theory of Interactive Markov Chains. A contract specif...
