Verifying Self-stabilizing Population Protocols with Coq
Population protocols are an elegant model recently introduced for distributed algorithms running in large and unreliable networks of tiny mobile agents. Correctness proofs of such...

Fault-Based Test Case Generation for Component Connectors
The complex interactions appearing in service-oriented computing make coordination a key concern in serviceoriented systems. In this paper, we present a fault-based method to gene...

Environmental Simulation of Real-Time Systems with Nested Interrupts
Interrupts are important aspects of real-time embedded systems to handle events in time. When there exist nested interrupts in a real-time system, and an urgent interrupt is allow...

Coarse Grained Retrenchment and the Mondex Denial of Service Attacks
Retrenchment is a framework that allows relatively unrestricted system evolution steps to be described in a way that gives an evolution step some formal content — unlike model b...

MARS: Metamodel Recovery from Multi-tiered Models Using Grammar Inference
In model-driven engineering, metamodels may get lost over time resulting in the inability to load and view existing model instances. MARS is a system that recovers metamodels from...

Interpreting a Successful Testing Process: Risk and Actual Coverage
Testing is inherently incomplete; no test suite will ever be able to test all possible usage scenarios of a system. It is therefore vital to assess the implication of a system pas...

A Computability Perspective on Self-Modifying Programs
Abstract—In order to increase their stealth, malware commonly use the self-modification property of programs. By doing so, programs can hide their real code so that it is diffi...
