This paper argues that "formal methods" can (continue to) provide the thinking tools for the future of computing science. Every significant engineering or scientific disc...
—A variety of partial modeling formalisms, aimed re and reason about abstractions, have been proposed. Some, e.g., Kripke Modal Transition Systems (KMTSs) put strong restrictions...
Biological systems have recently been shown to share many of the properties of reactive systems. This observation has led to the idea of using methods devised for the construction ...
