Synchronous systems can immediately react to the inputs of their environment which may lead to so-called causality cycles between actions and their trigger conditions. Systems wit...
Probability features increasingly often in software and hardware systems: it is used in distributed co-ordination and routing problems, to model fault-tolerance and performance, a...
We present a model, task automata, for real time systems with non-uniformly recurring computation tasks. It is an extended version of timed automata with asynchronous processes th...
The central idea behind interface-based design is to describe components by a component interface. In contrast to a component description that describes what a component does, a c...
We present an approach for applying symmetry reduction techniques to probabilistic model checking, a formal verification method for the quantitative analysis of systems with stocha...
