The global interaction behavior in message-based systems can be specified as a finite-state machine defining acceptable sequences of messages exchanged by a group of peers. Realiz...
System specifications have long been expressed through automata-based languages, enabling verification techniques such as model checking. These verification techniques can assess ...
Evaluation of non-functional properties of a design (such as performance, dependability, security, etc.) can be enabled by design annotations specific to the property to be evalua...
