In previous papers, a passive control implementation structure is proposed for mechanical systems interacting with physical environments. The proposed implementation structure enf...
Distributed systems can often be modeled as a collection of distributed (system) variables whose values are constrained by a set of constraints. In distributed multi-agent systems...

Most document or information management systems rely on hierarchies to organise documents (e.g. files, email messages or web bookmarks). However, the rigid structures of hierarchi...

We provide a structured classification of properties to guide the principled design of interactive systems. This classification is motivated by an existing software quality framew...
The construction and maintenance of large and complex software systems depend on the existence of global principles describing the structure and the interaction among its various ...
