The agent-oriented modeling process is divided in a typical sequence of activities, i.e., requirements specification, analysis, and design. The requirements are specified by des...
Petri Nets and higher order versions like Predicate Transition Nets (Pr/T-Nets) are very suitable for modeling event-oriented discrete and even parallel systems. Obviously, the ne...
Level-expanding quasi-birth-and-death (QBD) processes have been shown to be an efficient modeling tool for studying multi-dimensional systems, especially twodimensional ones. Comp...
Existing object tracking algorithms generally use some form of local optimisation, assuming that an object's position and shape change smoothly over time. In some situations ...
A compositional method for estimating software reliability of many threaded programs is developed. The method uses estimates of the reliability of individual modules and the proba...
