The paper introduces a method to model embedded dependability-critical systems as AND-composition of Guarded Statecharts which are special UMLstatecharts. With Guarded Statecharts...
This paper presents the Agent MOdeling LAnguage (AMOLA). This language provides the syntax and semantics for creating models of multi-agent systems covering the analysis and design...
Processor Idle Cycle Aggregation (PICA) is a promising approach for low power execution of processors, in which small memory stalls are aggregated to create a large one, and the p...
This paper investigates data-refinement by backward simulation for specifications whose semantics is given by partial relations. The standard model-theoretic approach is based on ...
—One of the key challenges in modern real-time embedded systems is safe composition of different software components. Formal verification techniques provide the means for design...
