: This paper describes a method of using Petri net P-invariants in system diagnosis. To model this process a net oriented fault classification is presented. Hence, the considered d...
The convergence of the Grid and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) worlds has led to many solutions that try to efficiently solve the problem of resource discovery on Grids. Some of these solutio...
Type systems currently available for imperative languages are too weak to detect a significant class of programming errors. For example, they cannot express the property that a l...
