Executable formal speci cation can allow engineers to test (or simulate) the speci ed system on concrete data before the system is implemented. This is beginning to gain acceptance...
It is generally believed that by combining several diverse intrusion detectors (i.e., forming an IDS ensemble), we may achieve better performance. However, there has been very lit...
In this chapter, we are concerned with the relationship between Description Logics and other formalisms, regardless of whether they were designed for knowledge representation issu...
We describe the design of VIP, a graphical front-end to the model checker SPIN. VIP supports a visual formalism, called v-Promela that connects the model checker to modern hierarc...
Program transformation through the repeated application of simple rewrite rules is conducive to formal verification. In practice, program transformation oftentimes requires data t...
