The mechanisms and design principles needed for achieving optimized handoff for mobile Internet services are poorly understood and need better analysis. This paper contributes to ...
Abstract—Software systems that do not meet their timing constraints can cause risks. In this work, we propose a comprehensive method for assessing the risk of timing failure by e...
We present a stochastic Petri net model of a replicated file system in a distributed environment where replicated files reside on different hosts and a voting algorithm is used to...
We apply language theory to compare the expressive power of models that extend Petri nets with features like colored tokens and/or whole place operations. Specifically, we conside...
Whereas partial order methods have proved their efficiency for the analysis of discrete-event systems, their application to timed systems remains a challenging research topic. Here...
