New emerging scientific applications in geosciences, sensor and spatio-temporal domains require adaptive analysis frameworks that can handle large datasets with multiple dimension...
Since software systems are becoming increasingly more concurrent and distributed, modeling and analysis of interactions among their components is a crucial problem. In several app...
The state of the practice in object-oriented software development has moved beyond reuse of code to reuse of conceptual structures such as design patterns. This paper draws attenti...
Product development requires the ability to check design consistency, to verify design properties, and to answer questions about a design's possible implementations. These tas...
Performance evaluation is a central issue in the design of complex real-time systems. In this work, we propose an extension of socalled "Max-Plus" algebraic techniques to...
