State-of-the-art computer graphics can give autonomous agents a compelling appearance as animated virtual characters. Typically the agents are directly responsible for controlling ...
The reactivity of Networked Automation Systems (NAS) has direct influence on safety and quality aspects. It can be determined by a response time analysis, which itself can be calc...
The coordination-policy that components interactions satisfied often determines the properties of nowadays component-based information systems, e.g. Safety, Liveness and Fairness ...
—Most analysis methods for real-time systems assume that all the components of the system are at roughly the same stage of development and can be expressed in a single notation, ...
