This paper introduces an extension of linear temporal logic that allows to express properties about systems that are composed of entities (like objects) that can refer to each othe...
Abstract. Agents interacting in open environments such as Internet are often in charge of personal information. In order to protect the privacy of human users, such agents have to ...
We study (collapsible) higher-order pushdown systems -- theoretically robust and well-studied models of higher-order programs -- along with their natural subclass called (collapsi...
Model checking is an automated technique for verifying that a system satisfies a set of required properties. Such properties are typically expressed as temporal logic formulas, in...
ORCHIDS is an intrusion detection tool based on techniques for fast, on-line model-checking. Temporal formulae are taken from a temporal logic tailored to the description of intrus...
