The design of complex systems, e.g., telecom services, is nowadays usually based on the integration of components (COTS), loosely coupled in distributed architectures. When compon...
Formal methods are a nice idea, but the size and complexity of real systems means that they are impractical. We propose that a reasonable alternative to attempting to specify and ...
Components (in-house or pre-fabricated) are increasingly being used to reduce the cost of software development. Given that these components may not have not been developed with de...
In this paper, we present the architecture of CoBFIT, a component-based framework for building intrusion-tolerant distributed systems. The CoBFIT framework, by virtue of its desig...

An important system design task is the partitioning of system functionality for implementation among multiple system components, including partitions among hardware and software c...
