Critical safety and liveness properties of a concurrent system can often be proven with the help of a reachability analysis of a finite state model. This type of analysis is usual...
Mobile computers such as notebooks, subnotebooks, and palmtops require low weight, low power consumption, and good interactive performance. These requirements impose many challeng...
We present a model, task automata, for real time systems with non-uniformly recurring computation tasks. It is an extended version of timed automata with asynchronous processes th...
Abstract—In decentralized cognitive radio (CR) networks, enabling the radios to establish a control channel (i.e., “rendezvous” to establish a link) is a challenging problem....
Applications must scale well to make efficient use of even medium-scale parallel systems. Because scaling problems are often difficult to diagnose, there is a critical need for sc...
