Synthesis of behaviour models from software development artifacts such as scenario-based descriptions or requirements specifications not only helps significantly reduce the effort...
Real-Time (RT) systems exhibit specific characteristics that make them particularly sensitive to architectural decissions. Design patterns help integrating the desired timing behav...
An advanced high-level approach for programming of real-time distributed computing applications, the TMO (Time-triggered Message-triggered Object) programming and specification sc...
In particular for safety critical systems it is necessary to make sure that the non-functional properties imposed by a system architecture meet the corresponding requirements as e...
Knowledge representation has always been a major problem in the design of medical decision support systems. In this paper we present a new methodology to represent and reason about...
