In this paper, we describe design motivations and experience with a visual language that treats the architecture of a reactive system as a composition of small, asynchronous softw...
KLAIM is an experimental language designed for modeling and programming distributed systems composed of mobile components where distribution awareness and dynamic system architect...
In existing asynchronous distributed systems it is impossible to implement failure detectors which are perfect, i.e. they only suspect crashed processes and eventually suspect all...
This paper aims at introducing an extension of M-nets, a fully compositional class of high-level Petri nets, and of its low-level counter part, Petri Boxes Calculus (PBC). We intro...
Abstract. The concept of unreliable failure detectors for reliable distributed systems was introduced by Chandra and Toueg as a fine-grained means to add weak forms of synchrony i...
