We introduce the formal notion of an interaction interface. Its purpose is to specify formally the interaction between two or more components that co-operate as subsystems of a di...
Model checking tools based on the iterative refinement of predicate abstraction (e.g., Slam and Blast) often feature a specification language for expressing complex behavior rules....

Abstract. We develop a way of analyzing the behavior of systems modeled using Discrete Time Markov Chains (DTMC). Specifically, we define iLTL, an LTL with linear inequalities on...
Performance non-determinism in computer systems complicates evaluation, use, and even development of these systems. In performance evaluation via benchmarking and simulation, nond...
