Component-Based Software Engineering, Separation of Concerns, Model-Driven Architecture, and Aspect-Oriented Programming are four active research areas that have been around for s...
We introduce PLC-Automata as a new class of automata which are tailored to deal with real-time properties of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). These devices are often used in...
Multi Agent Based Simulation (MABS) has been used mostly in purely social contexts. However, compared to other approaches, e.g., traditional discrete event simulation, object-orien...
