Time can be understood as dual to information in extant models of both sequential and concurrent computation. The basis for this duality is phase space, coordinatized by time and ...
This paper discusses a model-based design flow for requirements in distributed embedded software development. Such requirements are specified using a language similar to Linear T...

Pushdown Systems (PDSs) has become an important paradigm for program analysis. Indeed, recent work has shown a deep connection between inter-procedural dataflow analysis for seque...
Kowalski and Sergot’s Event Calculus (EC) is a simple temporal formalism that, given a set of event occurrences, derives the maximal validity intervals (MVIs) over which propert...
Given a 3-valued abstraction of a program (possibly generated using rogram analysis and predicate abstraction) and a temporal logic formula, generalized model checking (GMC) checks...
