One of the challenges in designing distributed, embedded systems is the paucity of formal, executable specification notations that provide support for both real-time and asynchron...
ABSTRACT. The design of spatial coordination mechanisms for dynamical and continuous multiagent setting is a difficult challenge. While the top-down decomposition approach is ineff...
Abstract. Interface-based design relies on the idea that different components of a system may be developed independently and a system designer can connect them together only if th...
