A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...
We report on a case study in which SAL model checkers have been used to analyze the Suzuki-Kasami distributed mutual exclusion algorithm with respect to the mutual exclusion prope...
ct Increasingly, model checking is being applied to more abstract problem domains than the traditional protocol analysis. The extent to which such an approach is able to provide us...
Stochastic local search algorithms can now successfully solve MAXSAT problems with thousands of variables or more. A key to this success is how effectively the search can navigate...

Abstract. Despite the widespread adoption of Role-based Access Control (RBAC) models, new access control models are required for new applications for which RBAC may not be especial...
