Biopathway databases have been developed, such as KEGG and EcoCyc, that compile interaction structures of biopathways together with biological annotations. However, these biopathw...
High-level stochastic description methods such as stochastic Petri nets, stochastic UML statecharts etc., together with specifications of performance variables (PVs), enable a co...
This paper develops a model for exceptions and an approach for incorporating them in commitment protocols among autonomous agents. Modeling and handling exceptions is critical for...
Abstract: Model-based development has an increasing importance in modern software engineering and other domains. Visual models such as Petri nets and UML diagrams proved to be an a...
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology provides the means to track any object, any time, anywhere with Electronic Product Codes (EPC). A major consequence of this techno...
