Formalization is a necessary precondition for the specification of precise and unambiguous use case models, which serve as reference points for the design and implementation of so...
Reactive real-time systems have to react to external events within time constraints: Triggered tasks must execute within deadlines. The goal of this article is to automate, based ...
How do we know if we can afford a particular purchase? We can find out what the payments might be and check our balances on various accounts, but does this answer the question? Wh...
on abstract principles that you can't easily apply in a formal, deductive fashion. So, the favorite tools of logicians and mathematicians, such as firstorder logic, aren'...
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...
