We propose a distributed on-demand power-management protocol for collecting data in sensor networks. The protocol aims to reduce power consumption while supporting fluctuating dem...
System-level design methodologies for embedded HW/SW systems face several challenges: In order to be susceptible to systematic formal analysis based on state-space exploration, a ...
In order to model the behaviour of open concurrent systems by means of Petri nets, we introduce open Petri nets, a generalization of the ordinary model where some places, designate...

Today‘s use of mobile phones is mostly for coordination purposes. It seems reasonable to assume that 3G and 4G high bandwidth systems will be used in a similar way. This paper th...
Validation of distributed systems using fault injection is difficult because of their inherent complexity, lack of a global clock, and lack of an easily accessible notion of a gl...
