This paper describes formal modeling and verification of automation systems from the system engineering point of view. Reuse of model components is the key issue in order to bring...
Traditionally, top-down and bottom-up design approaches have competed with each other in Algorithmics and Software Engineering. In the top-down approach, design process starts wit...
While implicit invocation (publish-subscribe) systems have goodengineering properties, they are difficult toreason about and to test. Model checking such systems is an attractive...
The paper introduces a system model called the probabilistic asynchronous model which characterises the context in which many practical and the Internet-based applications are bui...
Distributed groupware systems consist of a group of users manipulating a shared object (like a text document, a filesystem, etc). Operational Transformation (OT) algorithms are app...
