Abstract. Component based design is a new methodology for the construction of distributed systems and applications. In this new setting, a system is built by the assembly of (pre)-...
In this paper, we consider the problem of deriving a component X of a system knowing the behavior of the whole system C and the other components A. The component X is derived by s...
We present a new, on-the-fly algorithm that given a push-down model representing a sequential program with (recursive) procedure calls and an extended finite-state automaton repr...

Abstract Subtyping relations for object-oriented formalisms describe relationships between super- and subclasses which satisfy the substitutability requirement imposed on types and...
Use cases are useful in various stages of the software process. They are very often described using text that has to be interpreted by system designers. This could lead to implemen...
The Algebra of Communicating Shared Resources (ACSR) is a timed process algebra which extends classical process algebras with the notion of a resource. It takes the view that the ...

A symbolic semantics for Full LOTOS in terms of symbolic transition systems is defined; the semantics extends the (infinitely branching) standard semantics by giving meaning to da...
The modal logic FULL is designed to capture strong bisimulation over early symbolic transition systems (STSs) for full LOTOS. It provides a compact way of expressing and verifying ...
