Testing a deterministic implementation against a non-controllable non-deterministic stream X-machine
A stream X-machine is a type of extended finite state machine with an associated development approach that consists of building a system from a set of trusted components. One of th...

Specification, validation, and verification of time-critical systems
In this paper, we propose a new formalism, named the Timed Communicating Finite State Machine (Timed CFSM), for specifying and verifying time-critical systems. Timed CFSM preserve...

An optimistic checkpointing and selective message logging approach for consistent global checkpoint collection in distributed sy
In this paper, we present an asynchronous consistent global checkpoint collection algorithm which prevents contention for network storage at the file server and hence reduces the...
