A message flow is a sequence of messages sent among processors during the execution of a protocol, usually illustrated with something like a message sequence chart. Protocol design...
We discuss four issues concerning the semantics of Message Flow Graphs (MFGs). MFGs are extensively used as pictures of message-passing behavior. One type of MFG, Message Sequence...
The only practical way to test distributed messagepassing systems is to use local testing. In this approach, used in formalisms such as concurrent TTCN-3, some components are repl...
Following the scenario-based approach to programming which centered around live sequence charts (LSCs), we propose a general approach to software development in Java. A program wil...
Recently, the ITU-standardised specification language Message Sequence Chart has been extended with constructs for more complete and structured specifications. The new version of ...
