The central idea behind interface-based design is to describe components by a component interface. In contrast to a component description that describes what a component does, a c...
Dynamic voltage scaling and sleep state control have been shown to be extremely effective in reducing energy consumption in CMOS circuits. Though plenty of research papers have st...

Middleware provides simplicity and uniformity for the development of distributed applications. However, the modularity of the architecture of middleware is starting to disintegrat...
We describe a new algorithm for proving temporal properties expressed in LTL of infinite-state programs. Our approach takes advantage of the fact that LTL properties can often be...
