This paper presents a model-based approach to requirements engineering for reactive systems; we use an elevator controller as case study. We identify and justify two key propertie...
Due to fundamental physical limitations and power constraints, we are witnessing a radical change in commodity microprocessor architectures to multicore designs. Continued perform...
Intuitively, aggressive work sharing among concurrent queries in a database system should always improve performance by eliminating redundant computation or data accesses. We show...

Traditionally, software models are associated with development and maintenance related activities. This paper demonstrates that models also serve a vital purpose in supporting the...
Abstract. The assume-guarantee paradigm is a powerful divide-andconquer mechanism for decomposing a veri cation task about a system into subtasks about the individual components of...
