We describe an incomplete but sound and efficient livelock freedom test for infinite state asynchronous reactive systems. The method s a system into a set of simple control flow cy...
ÐIn this paper, we investigate the k-set consensus problem in asynchronous distributed systems. In this problem, each participating process begins the protocol with an input value...

Abstract. To support model-based development and analysis of embedded systems, the specification language VDM++ has been extended with asynchronous communication and improved timin...
Abstract-- Current systems are very often based on largescale, unpredictable and unreliable infrastructures. However, users of these systems increasingly require services with time...
We consider temporal aspects of self-replication and evolvability – in particular, the massively asynchronous parallel and distributed nature of living systems. Formal views of s...
