Abstract. Explicit state methods have proven useful in verifying safetycritical systems containing concurrent processes that run asynchronously and communicate. Such methods consis...
—Distributed Feature Composition (DFC) is a new technology for feature specification and composition, based on a virtual architecture offering benefits analogous to those of a pi...
The complexity of physical and engineering systems, both in terms of the governing physical phenomena and the number of subprocesses involved, is mirrored in ever more complex mat...
— Service composition enables flexible creation of new services by assembling independent service components. We are focused on the scenario where such composition takes place a...
Efficient system-level design is increasingly relying on hierarchical design-space exploration, as well as compositional methods, to shorten time-to-market, leverage design re-use...
