A technique is presented for obtaining a specification from a requirement through a series of incremental steps. The starting point is a Problem Frame description involving a requ...
This paper deals with specific issues related to the design of distributed embedded systems implemented with mixed, event-triggered and time-triggered task sets, which communicate...
Java's automatic memory management is the main reason that prevents Java from being used in hard realtime environments. We present the garbage collection mechanism that is us...
The Temporal Rover is a specification based verification tool for applications written in C, C++, Java, Verilog and VHDL. The tool combines formal specification, using Linear-Time ...
