Rewriting logic is a simple computational logic very well suited as a semantic framework within which many different models of computation, systems and languages can be naturally ...
Stochastic process algebras such as PEPA provide ample support for the component-based construction of models. Tools compute the numerical solution of these models; however, the st...
We present a novel specification language called JDC to be used at design phase of distributed components. The extensive seek for asynchrony in distributed components demands new ...
