This paper presents assume-guarantee style substitutivity results for the recently published timed I/O automaton modeling framework. These results are useful for decomposing verifi...
In previous work we have developed a syntactic reduction of repeated reachability to reachability for finite state systems. This may lead to simpler and more uniform proofs for mo...
Providing shared-memory abstraction in messagepassing systems often simplifies the development of distributed algorithms and allows for the reuse of sharedmemory algorithms in the...
An access control system is often viewed as a state transition system. Given a set of access control policies, a general safety requirement in such a system is to determine whethe...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a new approach for formal verification of hybrid systems. To do so, we present a new refinement proof technique, a weak refinement using step in...
