In this paper we use the timed modal logic Lν to specify control objectives for timed plants. We show that the control problem for a large class of objectives can be reduced to a ...
Abstract. Graph logic (GL) is a spatial logic for querying graphs introduced by Cardelli et al. It has been observed that in terms of expressive power, this logic is a fragment of ...
A full exploitation of the computational power available in a multi-core platform requires the software to be specified in terms of parallel execution flows. At the same time, mode...
Our goal is to identify families of relations that are useful for reasoning about software. We describe such families using decidable quantifier-free classes of logical constraints...
Experience on a large banking application has highlighted expressive weaknesses in the standard (concrete) syntax of UML, resulting in models that are under-constrained. It es, ho...
