Security and reliability are of paramount importance in designing and building real-time systems because any security failure can put the public and the environment at risk. In th...
—One problem of generating a model to recognize any string is how to generate one that is generalized enough to accept strings with similar patterns and, at the same time, is spe...
The design of complex systems, e.g., telecom services, is nowadays usually based on the integration of components (COTS), loosely coupled in distributed architectures. When compon...
Model Based Testing (MBT) is a functional testing technique that makes use of information from behavioral models of the software to carry out the testing task. This technique has b...
Abstract. We describe an approach to designing and implementing a distributed system as a family of related finite state machines, generated from a single abstract model. Various a...
