Abstract. The description of a single state of a modelled system is often complex in practice, but few procedures for synthesis address this problem in depth. We study systems in w...
A loose semantics for graph transformation rules which has been developed recently is used in this paper for the compositional verification of specifications. The main conceptual t...
Model checking has historically been an important tool to verify models of a wide variety of systems. Typically a model has to exhibit certain properties to be classed `acceptable&...
Systems of autonomous agents providing automated services over the Web are fast becoming a reality. Often these agent systems are constructed using procedural architectures that pr...
Abstract. We study the problem of applying statistical methods for approximate model checking of probabilistic systems against properties encoded as PCTL formulas. Such approximate...
