We present a novel approach, based on probabilistic formal methods, to developing cross-layer resource optimization policies for resource limited distributed systems. One objective...

It has been shown that sets of convergent operators with a shared fixed point can simulate autonomic control mechanisms, but many questions remain about this management technique....
We seek to increase user confidence in simulations as they are adapted to meet new requirements. Our approach includes formal representation of uncertainty, lightweight validation,...

The event calculus is a logic programming formalism for representing events and their effects especially in database applications. This paper presents the use of the event calculus...
One of the major puzzles in performing multi-agent-based simulations is the validity of their results. Optimisation of simulation parameters can lead to results that can be deceit...
