We define a mechanism for specifying performance queries which combine instantaneous observations of model states and finite sequences of observations of model activities. We reali...
Performance models are of increasing interest to professionals who do not have a background in mathematical analysis, it is important to provide additional mechanisms by developer...

In the 1980s process algebras became widely accepted formalisms for describing and analysing concurrency. Extensions of the formalisms, incorporating some aspects of systems which...
In this paper, we introduce FPS, a mechanism to define performance measures for stochastic process algebra models. FPS is a functional performance specification language which desc...
We present a GUI-based tool supporting the stochastic process algebra PEPA with modules for performance evaluation through Markovian steady-state analysis, fluid flow analysis, ...
