Abstract. In this paper we discuss the role of labels in transition systems with regard to bisimilarity and model checking problems. We suggest a general reduction from labelled tr...
It has long been recognised that standard process algebra has difficulty dealing with actions of different priority, such as for instance an interrupt action of high priority. Va...
We study the maximal reachability probability problem for infinite-state systems featuring both nondeterministic and probabilistic choice. The problem involves the computation of ...

A key issue in the design of a model-checking tool is the choice of the formal language with which properties are specified. It is now recognized that a good language should exten...
Bounded model checking has been recently introduced as an efficient verification method for reactive systems. In this work we apply bounded model checking to asynchronous systems....
The issue of this work is how to type mobility, in the sense that we tackle the problem of typing not only mobile agents but also their movement. This yields higher-order types for...

The paper gives an assessment of security for Mobile Ambients, with specific focus on mandatory access control (MAC) policies in multilevel security systems. The first part of th...
Abstract. A controller is an environment for a system that achieves a particular control objective by providing inputs to the system without constraining the choices of the system....

Abstract. We present a compositional trace-based model for probabilistic systems. The behavior of a system with probabilistic choice is a stochasticprocess, namely, a probability d...
