The use of computational models is increasingly expected to play an important role in predicting the behaviour of biological systems. Models are being sought at different scales o...
Today many formalisms exist for specifying complex Markov chains. In contrast, formalism for specifying the quantitative properties to analyze have remained quite primitive. In th...
Verification of system designs continues to be a major challenge today. Simulation remains the primary tool for making sure that implementations perform as they should. We present...
