We present a compositional semantics of synchronous systems that captures both safety and progress properties of such systems. The fair synchronous transitions systems (fsts) mode...
Grid computing intends to share heterogeneous resources in dynamic service-based environments. This kind of systems has the major advantages of enabling rapid composition of distr...
d Abstract) We extend the model of [VRV94] to express strong time-outs (and pre-emption): if an event A does not happen through time t, cause event B to happen at time t. Such con...
This paper presents a conceptual framework for service modelling and refinement, called the COSMO (COnceptual Service MOdelling) framework. This framework provides concepts to mode...

Formal models of geographic space should support reasoning about its static and dynamic properties, its objects, their behaviors, and the relationships between them. Image schemas,...
