Concurrency is one of the most important issues in system-level design. Interleaving among parallel processes can cause an extremely large number of different behaviors, making de...
Even though a thorough system specification improves the quality of the design , it is not sufficient to guarantee that a system will satisfy its reliability targets. Within this ...
It is widely recognised that software development is a complex process. Among the factors that contribute to its inherent complexity is the gap between the design and the formal a...
Complex Semantic Web (SW) services may have intricate data state, autonomous process behavior and concurrent interactions. The design of such SW service systems requires precise a...
Designing safety-critical systems is a complex process, and especially when the design is carried out at different f abstraction where the correctness of the design at one level i...
