The paper introduces a method to model embedded dependability-critical systems as AND-composition of Guarded Statecharts which are special UMLstatecharts. With Guarded Statecharts...
Background: Stochastic simulation has become a useful tool to both study natural biological systems and design new synthetic ones. By capturing the intrinsic molecular fluctuation...

Obtaining performance models, like Markov chains and queueing networks, for systems of significant complexity and magnitude is a difficult task that is usually tackled using human...
The queueing Petri net (QPN) paradigm provides a number of benefits over conventional modeling paradigms such as queueing networks and generalized stochastic Petri nets. Using qu...
High-level formalisms such as stochastic Petri nets can be used to model complex systems. Analysis of logical and numerical properties of these models often requires the generatio...
