This paper introduces a formal model for the description of interactive systems based on the interactor model of [15, 17]. Similarly to that model, it is intended to be used constr...
The B-Method is a state-based formal method that describes behaviour in terms of MACHINES whose states change under OPERATIONS. The process algebra CSP is an event-based formalism ...
DPLAYOUT is a layout synthesis tool for bit-sliced datapath designs targeting standard-cell libraries. We developed fast and efficient heuristics for placing the cells in a bit-s...
Abstract. Action refinement in process algebras has been widely studied in the last few years as a means to support top-down design of systems. A specific notion of refinement aris...
A requirement is a desired relationship among phenomena of the environment of a system, to be brought about by the hardware/software machine that will be constructed and installed...
