Software systems in safety-critical industrial automation systems, such as power plants and steel mills, become increasingly large, complex, and distributed. For assessing risks, l...
Being able to model contention for software resources (e.g., a critical section or database lock) is paramount to building performance models that capture all aspects of the delay...
Model-driven approaches proved themselves not suited yet to support real-time software development. Even if they have the ability of capturing adequately both functional and non-f...
The new generation of open networked IT systems poses particular challenges to software engineering due to their evolving nature and their high quality requirements. In particular...
