The design of complex systems is largely ruled by the time needed for verification. Even though formal methods can provide higher reliability, in practice often simulation based ve...
Specifying and managing access control policies is a challenging problem. We propose to develop formal verification techniques for access control policies to improve the current s...

Condition Data Flow Diagrams (CDFDs) are a formalized notation resulting from the integration of Yourdon Data Flow Diagrams, Petri Nets, and pre-post notation. They are used in th...
This paper discusses a formal and rigorous approach to the analysis of operator interaction with machines. It addresses the acute problem of detecting design errors in human-machi...
Abstract Read-write locking is an important mechanism to improve concurrent granularity, but it is difficult to reason about the safety of concurrent programs with read-write locks...
