This paper presents a specifically database-inspired approach (called DOGMA) for engineering formal ontologies, implemented as shared resources used to express agreed formal semant...
Model checking has been introduced as an automated technique to verify whether functional properties, expressed in a formal logic like computational tree logic (CTL), do hold in a...

Synchronous functional languages such as Lustre or Lucid Synchrone define a restricted class of Kahn Process Networks which can be executed with no buffer. Every expression is as...
Software programming languages, such as C/C++, have been used as means for specifying hardware for quite a while. Different design methodologies have exploited the advantages of f...
The language AML is used to specify the semantics of architecture description languages, ADLs. It is a very primitive language, having declarations for only three constructs: elem...
