We present a non-operational approach to specifying and analyzing shared memory consistency models. The method uses higher order logic to capture a complete set of ordering constra...

— We consider the general problem of optimizing the performance of OBS networks with multiple traffic classes subject to strict (absolute) QoS constraints in terms of the end-to...
Model checking based on the causal partial order semantics of Petri nets is an approach widely applied to cope with the state space explosion problem. One of the ways to exploit su...
Automated software verification and path-sensitive program analysis require the ability to distinguish executable program paths from those that are infeasible. To achieve this, pro...
