Detecting synchronisation of biological oscillators by model checking
We define a subclass of timed automata, called oscillator timed automata, suitable to model biological oscillators. Coupled biological oscillators may synchronise, as emerging be...

Modeling Music as a Dynamic Texture
—We consider representing a short temporal fragment of musical audio as a dynamic texture, a model of both the timbral and rhythmical qualities of sound, two of the important asp...

A Graph-Based Aspect Interference Detection Approach for UML-Based Aspect-Oriented Models
Abstract. Aspect Oriented Modeling (AOM) techniques facilitate separate modeling of concerns and allow for a more flexible composition of these than traditional modeling technique...

Context-Enhanced Directed Model Checking
Directed model checking is a well-established technique to efficiently tackle the state explosion problem when the aim is to find error states in concurrent systems. Although dir...

Automatic Generation of Model Checking Scripts Based on Environment Modeling
When applying model checking to the design models of the embedded systems, it is necessary to model not only the behavior of the target system but also that of the environment inte...

A fluid approximation for large-scale service systems
We introduce and analyze a deterministic fluid model that serves as an approximation for the Gt/GI/st + GI manyserver queueing model, which has a general time-varying arrival pro...

Heavy-traffic limits for nearly deterministic queues
We establish heavy-traffic limits for nearly deterministic queues, such as the G/D/n many-server queue. Since waiting times before starting service in the G/D/n queue are equivale...

Local Monotonicity Reconstruction
We propose a general model of local property reconstruction. Suppose we have a function f on domain Γ, which is supposed to have a particular property P, but may not have the pro...

Replication Techniques for Availability
Abstract The chapter studies how to provide clients with access to a replicated object that is logically indistinguishable from accessing a single yet highly available object. We s...

A hybrid controller based on the egocentric perceptual principle
In this paper we extend the control methodology based on Extended Markov Tracking (EMT) by providing the control algorithm with capabilities to calibrate and even partially recons...
