We present a new approach to the modelling of time constrained systems. It is based on untimed high-level Petri nets using the concept of causal time. With this concept, the progr...
Modularity is one of the most important properties of a software design, with significant impact on changeability and evolvability. However, a formalized and automated approach i...
Problems such as the design of distributed controllers are characterized by modularity and symmetry. However, the symmetries useful for solving them are often difficult to determ...
