Emulators that translate algorithms from the shared-memory model to two different message-passing models are presented. Both are achieved by implementing a wait-free, atomic, singl...
: This paper presents a genetic algorithm based approach for algebraic optimization of behavioral system specifications. We introduce a chromosomal representation of data-flow gr...
Model checking is the process of verifying whether a model of a concurrent system satisfies a specified temporal property. Symbolic algorithms based on Binary Decision Diagrams (BD...
