In this paper we describe a new approach to data modelling called the concept-oriented model (CoM). This model is based on the formalism of nested ordered sets which uses inclusion...
The key problem in applying verification techniques such as model checking to agent architectures is to show how to map systematically from an agent program to a model structure t...
The weak instance model is a framework to consider the relations in a database as a whole, regardless of the way attributes are grouped in the individual relations. Queries and upd...
Simulation professionals need to see themselves first as systems analysts, i.e., problem solvers, rather than just simulation users. As the networked digital economy develops, sys...
Abstract. Separation kernels are key components in embedded applications. Their small size and widespread use in high-integrity environments make them good targets for formal model...
