This paper discusses highly general mechanisms for specifying the refinement of a real-time system as a collection of lower level parallel components that preserve the timing and ...

In this paper we describe a hardware design method for memory and register arrays that allows the application of formal equivalence checking for comparing a high-level register tr...
Today many formalisms exist for specifying complex Markov chains. In contrast, formalisms for specifying rewards, enabling the analysis of long-run average performance properties,...
—Owing to the limited requirement for sensor processing in early networked sensor nodes, embedded software was generally built around the communication stack. Modern sensor nodes...

A serious problem of most transformation-based generators is that they are trying to achieve three mutually antagonistic goals simultaneously: 1) deeply factored operators and oper...
