We study the semantics and refinement of mobile objects, considering an extension of core UML state machines by primitives that designate the location of objects and their moves wi...
Alternating-time temporal logic (atl) is one of the most influential logics for reasoning about agents’ abilities. Constructive Strategic Logic (csl) is a variant of atl for im...
We show that characteristic formulae for nite-state systems up to bisimulationlike equivalences (e.g., strong and weak bisimilarity) can be given in the simple branching-time temp...
Abstract. In this paper we work on (bi)simulation semantics of processes that exhibit both nondeterministic and probabilistic behaviour. We propose a probabilistic extension of the...
Model checking based on validating temporal logic formulas has proven practical and effective for numerous software engineering applications. As systems based on this approach ha...
