Abstract. In this paper, we define Time Petri Nets with Inhibitor Hyperarcs (IHTPN) as an extension of T-time Petri nets where time is associated with transitions. In this model, ...
Formal methods have proved to be very useful for analyzing cryptographic protocols. However, most existing techniques apply to the case of abstract encryption schemes and pairing....
Formal approaches to HW and system design have not been generally adopted, because designers often view the modelling concepts in these approaches as unsuitable for their problems...
Abstract. Argumentation-based formalisms provide a way of considering the defeasible nature of reasoning with partial and often erroneous knowledge in a given environment. This pro...
Partial functions and operators are used extensively in the formal development of programs and thus development methods have to clarify how to reason about them. There are a numbe...
