Abstract. In a trace-based world, the modular speci cation, veri cation, and control of live systems require each module to be receptive that is, each module must be able to meet i...
In this article, the problem of finding a tight estimate on the worst-case execution time (WCET) of a real-time program is addressed. The analysis is focused on straight-line code...
When executing soft real-time tasks in a shared processor, it is important to properly allocate the computational resources such that the quality of service requirements of each t...

Maximizing system lifetime in battery-powered wireless sensor networks with power aware topology control protocols and routing protocols has received intensive research. In the pa...
This paper discusses the use of formal methods for analysing human-computer interaction. We focus on the mode confusion problem that arises whenever the user thinks that the syste...
