Hybrid transition systems in their full generality describe continuous behaviour by a set of equations in each mode an algebraic or di erential equation for each state variable in ...
On-line transducers are an important class of computational agent; we construct and compose together many software systems using them, such as stream processors, layered network p...
The Rely-Guarantee approach is a well-known compositional method for proving Hoare logic properties of concurrent programs. In this approach, predicates in the proof must be proved...
Despite the ubiquity of XML, research in metrics for XML documents is scarce. This paper proposes and discusses eleven metrics to measure the quality and complexity of XML Schema ...
The goal is to build a general framework for ad hoc applications over large networks using semantics and complex systems analysis. The first part deals with semantics because appl...
