A high assurance system requires both functional and nonfunctional correctness before the system is put into operation. To examine whether a system’s actual performance complies...
: In information systems that support knowledge-discovery applications such as scientific exploration, reliance on highly structured ontologies as data-organization aids can be lim...
We present a novel approach which facilitates formal verification of component-based software application families using model checking. This approach enables effective composition...
Timed Interval Calculus (TIC) is a highly expressive set-based notation for specifying and reasoning about embedded real-time systems. However, it lacks mechanical proving support...
The design of complex systems is largely ruled by the time needed for verification. Even though formal methods can provide higher reliability, in practice often simulation based ve...
