Formal verification of Function Block Diagram (FBD) based software is an essential task when replacing traditional relay-based analog system with PLC-based software in nuclear rea...
Program verification systems based on automated theorem provers rely on user-provided axioms in order to verify domain-specific properties of code. However, formulating axioms corr...
Formal description techniques, verification methods, and their tool-based automated application meanwhile provide valuable support for the formal analysis of communication protocol...
We propose to extend the temporal causal graph formalisms used in model-based diagnosis in order to deal with non trivial interactions like (partial) cancellation of fault effects...
Feature-oriented programming organizes programs around features rather than objects, thus better supporting extensible, product-line architectures. Programming languages increasin...
