Recent work in the area of Model-based Safety Analysis has demonstrated key advantages of this methodology over traditional approaches, for example, the capability of automatic ge...
In current model-based development practice, validation that we are building a correct model is achieved by manually deriving requirements-based test cases for model testing. Mode...

Embedded systems are used for critical applications that must adhere to safety constraints. Developers of these systems face three key challenges when attempting to apply existing...
We present a tool-supported approach to the validation of system-level timing properties in formal models of distributed real-time embedded systems. Our aim is to provide system a...

Recently, many routing protocols and applications for mobile ad hoc networks have been proposed. However, most of them are tested through the simulation experiments, but are not d...
Many problems in high assurance systems design are only tractable using computationally expensive search algorithms. For these algorithms to be useful, designers must be provided ...
