We show that the traditional notion of superposition as used for supporting parallel program design can subsume both composition and refinement relationships when non-deterministi...
Refinement is a key methodology for SoC design. The proposed IPSIM design environment, based on a C++ modeling library developed on top of SystemC 3.0, supports an object-oriented...

process: Designers must define higher abstraction levels that allow system modeling. They must use description languages that handle both hardware and software components to descri...
Abstract. Refinement concepts, such as procedural and data refinement, are among the most important ideas of software engineering. In this paper, we investigate the idea of design ...
Cohen's [1] refinement rules provide a flexible mechanism for introducing intentional background knowledge in an ILP system. Whereas Cohen used a limited second order theorem ...
