We present a formal verification methodology that we have used on a computer system design project. The methodology integrates a temporal logic model checker with a conventional pr...

Recent advances in Dynamic Power Management (DPM) techniques have resulted in designs that support a rich set of power management options, both at the hardware and software levels...
Policy conflict analysis processes based solely on the examination of policy language constructs can not readily discern the semantics associated with the managed system for which ...

To design a task-independent dialogue system, we present a task-oriented dialogue analysis in terms of finding the referents of definite descriptions and we show how this analysis...
We propose a model for transfer in machine translation which uses a rewriting system for typed feature structures. The grammar definitions describe transfer relations which are ap...

Software modularization activities remain without the guidance of formal theories and models. According to Baldwin and Clark's [1] design rule theory (DRT) , modular architec...
In this paper we report some progress in applying timed automata technology to large-scale problems. We focus on the problem of finding maximal stabilization time for combinationa...
This paper introduces a framework for modeling and specifying the global behavior of e-service compositions. Under this framework, peers (individual e-services) communicate throug...
This paper formally introduces several stability characterizations of £xtured three-dimensional rigid bodies initially at rest and in unilateral contact with Coulomb friction. The...

We consider a formal framework for property verification of web applications using Spin model checker. Some of the web related properties concern all states of the model, while ot...
