We present a compositional semantics of synchronous systems that captures both safety and progress properties of such systems. The fair synchronous transitions systems (fsts) mode...
A controversial issue in the formal methods community is the degree to which mathematical sophistication and theorem proving skills should be needed to apply a formal method. A fun...
Visual description techniques are particularly important for the design of hybrid systems because specifications of such systems must usually be discussed between engineers from a ...
PLC-Automata are a class of real-time automata suitable to describe the behavior of polling real-time systems. PLC-Automata can be compiled to source code for PLCs, a hardware wide...
Predictability is crucial in critical applications and systems. Therefore, we examine sources of uncertainty for each of the four phases that span a project lifecycle, from initial...
