Stochastic Petri nets (SPNs) have proven to be a powerful and enduring graphically-oriented framework for modelling and performance analysis of complex systems. This tutorial focu...
We promote an engineering approach to design of provably secure key exchange protocols. Using the model of Canetti and Krawczyk we present a systematic method to arrive at efficie...

Component based or building block based simulation model development is regularly mentioned as an interesting new development and a potential field of research. Most of the commer...
— This paper proposes a new algorithm to identify and compose building blocks based on minimum mutual information criterion. Building blocks are interpreted as common subsequence...
We show how a set of building blocks can be used to construct programming language interpreters, and present implementations of such building blocks capable of supporting many com...
This paper extends previous work showing how fluctuating crosstalk in a deterministic fitness function introduces noise into genetic algorithms. In that work, we modeled fluctuati...
We propose a crossover method to combine complexly overlapping building blocks (BBs). Although there have been several techniques to identify linkage sets of loci o form a BB [4, ...
The shaky ladder hyperplane-defined functions (sl-hdf's) are a test suite utilized for exploring the behavior of the genetic algorithm (GA) in dynamic environments. We present...
