The ability to guarantee that a system will continue to operate correctly under degraded conditions is key to the success of adopting multi-agent systems (MAS) as a paradigm for d...
Priorities are used to resolve conflicts such as in resource sharing and in safety designs. The use of priorities has become indispensable in real-time system design such as in s...
In order to address the complexities of SoC design, rigorous development methods and automated tools are required. This paper presents an approach to formal verification using mod...
Abstract. We demonstratehow the use of synchronizationprimitives and threading policies in distributed object middleware can lead to deadlocks. We identify that objectmiddleware on...
As systems become ever more complex, verification becomes more main stream. Event-B and Alloy are two formal specification languages based on fairly different methodologies. While...
