Abstract. This paper introduces a new method for safety analysis called HiPHOPS (Hierarchically Performed Hazard Origin and Propagation Studies). HiP-HOPS originates from a number ...
The goal of this work is to design and implement an agent-based system that facilitates interaction among a group of individuals who are part of an organization, observe types and...
We present an efficient algorithm for exact calculation and minimization of expected waiting times of all passengers using a bank of elevators. The dynamics of the system are rep...
We present tools to support model-based security engineering on both the model and the code level. In the approach supported by these tools, one firstly specifies the securitycr...
We consider the problem of the exact simulation of random variables Z that satisfy the distributional identity Z L = V Y + (1 − V )Z, where V ∈ [0, 1] and Y are independent, an...
