Discrete event simulation modelling has been extensively used in modelling complex systems. Although it offers great conceptual-modelling flexibility, it is both computationally e...
Abstract. The integration of COTS components into a system under development entails architectural mismatches. These have been tackled, so far, at the component level, through comp...
Many safety-related and certification standards exist for developing safety-critical systems. Safety assessments are performed in practice, and system certification according to a...
Model-driven engineering (MDE) addresses platform complexity issues by abstracting platformindependent models for subsequent transformation to platform-specific models. This faci...
System specifications have long been expressed through automata-based languages, enabling verification techniques such as model checking. These verification techniques can assess ...
