on models are abstract representations of systems one wants to study through computer simulation. In multiagent based simulation, such models usually represent agents and their re...
We previously developed a component-oriented model that combines ideas from self-organizing architectures and from design by contract to address the complexity of design in multi-t...

In recent years light-weighted formal methods are of growing interest in construction and analysis of complex concurrent software system. A new rule-action based term rewriting fr...
