Probabilistic I/O automata (PIOA) constitute a model for distributed or concurrent systems that incorporates a notion of probabilistic choice. The PIOA model provides a notion of ...
Many mathematical models have been proposed to evaluate the execution performance of an application with and without checkpointing in the presence of failures. They assume that th...
Optimization and design of production and service operations has been a cornerstone of simulation applications for many years. Recently there has been increasing interest in excel...
This work introduces probabilistic model checking as a viable tool-assisted approach for systematically quantifying DoS security threats. The proposed analysis is based on a proba...
This paper presents a methodology for accurately characterizing the system calls of an operating system for embedded applications. Characterization consists of two phases: measure...
