—Architecture-based software reliability analysis methods shall help software architects to identify critical software components and to quantify their influence on the system r...
Boolean modeling frameworks have long since proved their worth for capturing and analyzing essential characteristics of complex systems. Hybrid approaches aim at exploiting the ad...
Queueing networks are gaining attraction for the performance analysis of parallel computer systems. A Jackson network is a set of interconnected servers, where the completion of a...
We propose a method of approximate dynamic programming for Markov decision processes (MDPs) using algebraic decision diagrams (ADDs). We produce near-optimal value functions and p...
