This paper investigates a complexity-effective technique for verifying a highly distributed directory-based cache coherence protocol. We develop a novel approach called “witnes...
— This paper deals with the performance modeling of the various MAC states as defined by the cdma2000 protocol. Our method uses a composite performance metric which has the capa...
Abstract. UML 2.0, which is the standard modeling language for objectoriented systems, has only an informally given semantics. This is in particular the case for UML 2.0 state mach...
Interacting State Machines (ISMs) are used to model reactive systems and to express and verify their properties. They can be seen both as automata exchanging messages simultaneousl...
An agent-based approach is used to explain the formation of vortex swarms in biological systems. The dynamics of the multiagent system is described by 3N coupled equations, modeli...
