Abstract. Parallel programming is rapidly gaining importance as a vector to develop high performance applications that exploit the improved capabilities of modern computer architec...
Describing an application as a simple composition of services allows advanced features that exploit different platforms to be conceived e formalized at a high abstraction level. S...
Abstract. Component based design is a new methodology for the construction of distributed systems and applications. In this new setting, a system is built by the assembly of (pre)-...
Abstract. Polynomially accurate simulations [19] are relations for Probabilistic Automata that require transitions to be matched up to negligible sets provided that computation len...
In the context of service-oriented computing, behavioural contracts are descriptions of the message-passing behaviour of services. They can be used to check properties of service c...
