As data volumes increase at a high speed in more and more application fields of science, engineering, information services, etc., the challenges posed by data-intensive computing...
This paper discusses the use of formal methods in testing of concurrent systems. It is argued that formal methods and testing can be mutually profitable and useful. A framework fo...
Abstract. This paper is a first step towards a systematic evaluation of the possibilities to use membrane computing as a modeling framework for economics. Membrane computing is a ...
— This paper presents new results on the formal design of distributed coordinating agents in a discrete-event framework. In this framework, agents are modeled to be individually ...
—In distributed computing systems (DCSs) where server nodes can fail permanently with nonzero probability, the system performance can be assessed by means of the service reliabil...
