Off-The-Shelf (OTS) software components are being used within complex safety-critical applications. However, to use these untrustworthy components with confidence, it is necessary...
Abstract. Extensible Component Platforms support the discovery, installation, starting, uninstallation of components at runtime. Since they are often targeted at mobile resource-co...
The purpose of this research paper is to examine (1) why formal methods are required for software systems today; (2) the Praxis High Integrity Systems’ Correctness-by-Constructi...
We present an approach for the use case and scenario-based testing of software components. Use cases and scenarios are applied to describe the functional requirements of a software...
Usually complex systems are controlled by an operator co-operating with a computer-based controller. The controlling software runs in continuous interaction with the operator and c...
