ÐBSR (Broadcasting with Selective Reduction) is a PRAM more powerful than any CRCW PRAM. In order to extend the Broadcast Instruction of BSR and make it more useful for a large cl...
This report presents a formal approach to reducing sequences in PEPA components. Performing the described amalgamation procedure we may remove, from the underlying Markov chain, t...
First-order translations have recently been characterized as the maps computed by aperiodic single-valued nondeterministic finite transducers (NFTs). It is shown here that this ch...

Today many formalisms exist for specifying complex Markov chains. In contrast, formalism for specifying the quantitative properties to analyze have remained quite primitive. In th...
