Abstract. Model programs are high-level behavioral specifications typically representing Abstract State Machines or ASMs. Conformance checking of model programs is the problem of ...
Model Driven Development and Use Case Driven Development methodologies have inspired the proposal of a variety of software engineering approaches that synthesize statebased models...
As an efficient representation of Extended Finite State Machines, Multiway Decision Graphs (MDG) are suitable for automatic hardware verification of Register Transfer Level (RTL) ...
A special final coalgebra theorem, in the style of Aczel's [2], is proved within standard Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. Aczel's AntiFoundation Axiom is replaced by a varia...
Many embedded systems exhibit temporally and behaviorally disjoint behavior slices. When such behaviors are captured by state machines, the current design flow will capture it as ...
