Many strategies have been proposed to address the problems associated with managing increasingly complex computing systems. IBM's Autonomic Computing (AC) paradigm is one suc...
Abstract. A recent contribution to the formal specification and verification of concurrent systems is the integration of the state- and event-based approaches B and CSP, specifical...
Access control is one of the most fundamental and widely used security mechanisms. Access control mechanisms control which principals such as users or processes have access to whi...

Abstract. Refinement plays a crucial role in "top-down" styles of verification, such as the refinement calculus, but for probabilistic systems proof of refinement is a pa...
