In this paper, a methodology for generating VHDL descriptions of hardware checkers is presented. It is shown how the methodology can be used to generate on-line checkers of commun...
Very large systems have an architecture that is designed to allow them to evolve through a long life. Such systems are developed by teams of architects. One of the first things t...
Researchers have made great strides in improving the fault tolerance of both centralized and replicated systems against arbitrary (Byzantine) faults. However, there are hard limit...

This paper is a highly personal and subjective account of how the language of statecharts came into being. The main novelty of the language is in being a fully executable visual f...
Modeling systems based on semi-formal graphical formalisms, such as Statecharts, have become standard practice in the design of reactive embedded devices. Statecharts are often mor...
