: This paper summarizes how an algebra for mobile systems, the -calculus, can be applied as unified formal foundation to service oriented architectures (SOA). The concepts accounte...
In this paper we present a novel performance analysis technique for large-scale systems modelled in the stochastic process algebra PEPA. In contrast to the well-known approach of ...
Recent work has shown that we can dramatically improve the performance of computer games and simulations through declarative processing: Character AI can be written in an imperati...

Abstract. In this paper we consider the relationship between refinement-oriented specification and specifications using a temporal logic. We investigate the extent to which one can...
vices provide an important abstract layer on top of heterogeneous components (hardware and software) that take part into a grid environment. In this scenario, applications, like sc...
