Several different kinds of performance models can be generated from sets of scenarios that describe typical responses of a system, and their use of resources. The Core Scenario Mod...
Descriptions of reactive systems focus heavily on behavioral aspects, often in terms of scenarios. To cope with the increasing complexity of services provided by these systems, beh...
It is well known that errors introduced early in the development process are commonly the most expensive to correct. The increasingly popular model-driven architecture (MDA) exace...
In this paper, we discuss various aspects of the design, implementation, and use of JAPROSIM which is a general purpose discrete event simulation framework based on the Java progr...
Much of the research work on design patterns has primarily focused on discovering and documenting patterns. Design patterns promise early reuse benefits at the design stage. To rea...
