SystemC is emerging as a de-facto standard for system design but it still lacks support for continuous-time models of computation and multi-domain systems. This becomes an issue a...
: This paper examines how object-oriented extensions to the Petri Net formalism provide flexible structuring primitives which can aid the modelling of network protocols. A key bene...
: We give a semantics for a typed object calculus, an extension of System F with object subsumption and method override. We interpret the calculus in a per model, proving the sound...
We propose a URI scheme for addressing CORBA objects. A URI for an object not only identifies the object but may also optionally include the name of the method to be invoked on th...
We show how extensible records with structural subtyping can be represented directly in Higher-Order Logic (HOL). Exploiting some specific properties of HOL, this encoding turns o...
