Formal specification methods are not often applied in industrial projects, despite their advantages and the maturity of theories and tools. The scarce familiarity of practitioners...
This paper introduces a formal model for the description of interactive systems based on the interactor model of [15, 17]. Similarly to that model, it is intended to be used constr...
Abstract. The starting point for Model-Based Testing is an implementation relation that formally defines when a formal model representing the System Under Test conforms to a formal...
In this paper, we introduce a new, formal model of learning object metadata. The model enables more formal, rigorous reasoning over metadata. An important feature of the model is t...
This paper presents a formal model of the substitution rules for soccer games as they existed at the 1994 World Cup. The model is expressed in VDM and can be animated with the VDMT...
This paper presents a Path Swapping (PS) method which enables to enhance the security of Quasi Delay Insensitive Asynchronous Circuits against Power Analysis (PA) attack. This appr...
Abstract. Modeling different types of dialog between autonomous agents is becoming an important research issue. Several proposals exist with a clear definition of the dialog protoc...
Group signature schemes are cryptographic systems that provide revocable anonymity for signers. We propose a group signature scheme with constant-size public key and signature leng...
Abstract. Translating clinical guidelines into formal models is beneficial in many ways, but expensive. The progress in medical knowledge requires clinical guidelines to be updated...
Formal knowledge modelling languages have a number of advantages over informal languages, such as their precise meaning and the possibility to derive propertiesthrough formal proof...
