We demonstrate how to apply Coupling from the Past, a simulation technique for exact sampling, to Markov chains based on TCP variants. This approach provides a new, statistically ...
This paper argues that there are new insights to be gained from a strategic analysis of requirements engineering. The paper is motivated by a simple question: what does it take to...
Predictive p-persistent CSMA protocol is an important MAC solution developed for networked sensor/control applications and used in Local Operating Networks (LonWorks) technology. T...
We introduce relational grams (r-grams). They upgrade n-grams for modeling relational sequences of atoms. As n-grams, r-grams are based on smoothed n-th order Markov chains. Smoot...
Abstract. Model checking of real-time systems against Duration Calculus (DC) specifications requires the translation of DC formulae into automata-based semantics. The existing algo...
