Distributed hard real-time systems have become a major component of many advanced technical products. Means to ensure their proper quality are thus of paramount importance. To ens...
Discrete-event (DE) models are formal system specifications that have analyzable deterministic behaviors. Using a global, consistent notion of time, DE components communicate via...
Code obfuscation is a relatively new technique of software protection and it works by deterring reverse engineering attempts by malicious users of software. The objective of obfus...
Many industrial applications mandate the use of a timetriggered paradigm and consequently the use of off-line scheduling for reasons such as predictability, certification, cost, o...
Both the logic and the stochastic analysis of discrete-state systems are hindered by the combinatorial growth of the state space underlying a high-level model. In this work, we con...
