An important question for network simulation is what level of detail is required to obtain a desired level of accuracy. While in some networks, the level of detail is an open rese...
Automated verification is a technique for establishing if certain properties, usually expressed in temporal logic, hold for a system model. The model can be defined using a high-l...
Abstract. We study the problem of applying statistical methods for approximate model checking of probabilistic systems against properties encoded as PCTL formulas. Such approximate...
of abstractions a middleware system makes available to applications, they figure prominently in determining the breadth and variety of application integration that the middleware s...
Current software component models insufficiently reflect the different stages of component life-cycle, which involves design, implementation, deployment, and runtime. Therefore, re...
