Abstract: We present two probabilistic leader election algorithms for anonymous unidirectional rings with FIFO channels, based on an algorithm from Itai and Rodeh [Itai and Rodeh 1...
We propose a rule-based approach for transforming B abstract machines into UML diagrams. We believe that important insight into the structure underlying a B model can be gained by...
Component based design is a new paradigm to build distributed systems and applications. The problem of compositional verification of such systems is however still open. We investig...
This paper extends the well-known technique of slicing to synchronous reactive programs. Synchronous languages exemplified by Esterel, Lustre, Signal and Argos, novel model of exe...
Abstract-- Automata-based methods for generating PSL hardware assertion checkers were primarily considered for use with temporal sequences, as opposed to full-scale properties. We ...
