The engineering of systems that are acceptably correct is a hard problem. On the one hand, semi-formal modelling approaches that are used in practical, large-scale system developm...
It is widely recognised that software development is a complex process. Among the factors that contribute to its inherent complexity is the gap between the design and the formal a...
Abstract—Functional flow block diagrams (FFBDs) are a traditional tool of systems engineering and remain popular in some systems engineering domains. However, their lack of form...

In this paper, we develop an automated framework for formal verification of timed continuous Petri nets (ContPNs). Specifically, we consider two problems: (1) given an initial set ...
