Of special interest in formal verification are safety properties, which assert that the system always stays within some allowed region. A computation that violates a general linea...
The Gamma model is a minimal programming language based on local multiset rewriting (with an elegant chemical reaction metaphor); Hankin et al derived a calculus of Gamma programs...
The Cognitive Agent Specification Language (CASL) is a framework for specifying and verifying complex communicating multiagent systems. In this paper, we develop an extended versi...
We present an approach for applying symmetry reduction techniques to probabilistic model checking, a formal verification method for the quantitative analysis of systems with stocha...
In today's world there is a need for knowledge infrastructures that can support several autonomous knowledge bases all using different ontologies and constantly adapting thes...
