For many years, Petri nets have been used for modeling the behavior of various types of concurrent systems. While these net models are especially well suited to capture the behavi...
A method is described for the analysis and the verification of safety in software systems. The method offers a formal notation for describing the software structure, the means for ...
In this paper we present a formal approach to analyse performance for distributed systems, which is integrated in the early stages of the software development process. We propose ...
Network protocol performance and evaluation study is often carried out using a couple of widely used simulation toolkits, such as ns-2 and OPNET. These toolkits usually contain ma...
Industrial processes can be often modelled using Petri nets. If all the process variables (or events) are assumed to be twovalued signals, then it is possible to obtain a hardware...
