This paper studies specific language level abstractions for component-based programming. We propose a simple model which captures some basic ingredients — like explicit context ...
Abstract. Component-based programming is about how to create application programs from prefabricated components with new software that provides both glue between the components, an...
We take the position that large-scale distributed systems are better understood, at all levels, when locality is taken into account. When communication and mobility are clearly se...
Much work has been done in the area of qualitative spatial reasoning over the past years, with application in various domains. However, existing models only capture particular asp...
Abstract. This paper analyses the complexity of model checking Fixpoint Logic with Chop – an extension of the modal µ-calculus with a sequential composition operator. It uses tw...
