This paper reviews the model of interactive Markov chains (IMCs, for short), an extension of labelled transition systems with exponentially delayed transitions. We show that IMCs a...
High-level formalisms such as stochastic Petri nets can be used to model complex systems. Analysis of logical and numerical properties of these models often requires the generatio...

Abstract. Software performance engineering deals with the consideration of quantitative analysis of the behaviour of software systems from the early development phases in the life ...
The mechanisms and design principles needed for achieving optimized handoff for mobile Internet services are poorly understood and need better analysis. This paper contributes to ...
The queueing Petri net (QPN) paradigm provides a number of benefits over conventional modeling paradigms such as queueing networks and generalized stochastic Petri nets. Using qu...
