This paper presents PiDES, a formalism for discrete event simulation based on Pi-calculus. PiDES provides a rigorous semantics of behavior modeling and coordination for simulation...
Staffing and scheduling optimization in large multiskill call centers is time-consuming, mainly because it requires lengthy simulations to evaluate performance measures and their ...
The complicated user interfaces and complex functionality of nowadays interactive products lead to a new class of failures: People do not understand their products and thus fail t...
Aspect-oriented programming languages provide new composition mechanisms for improving the modularity of crosscutting concerns. Implementations of such language support use advanc...
Model checking is a powerful and widespread technique for the verification of finite distributed systems. However, the main hindrance for wider application of this technique is the...
