Abstract. In this paper we consider two performance modelling techniques from the perspectives of model construction, generation of an underlying continuous time Markov process, an...
Visual representations are widely used to describe modern-day software systems, but, in most cases, they lack rigour. This paper addresses the problems of formality, rigour and co...
The engineering of systems that are acceptably correct is a hard problem. On the one hand, semi-formal modelling approaches that are used in practical, large-scale system developm...
Feature sizes in VLSI circuits are steadily shrinking. This results in increasing susceptibility to soft errors, e.g. due to environmental radiation. Precautions against soft error...
Abstract. It has been observed that there are interesting relations between planning and agent programming. This is not surprising as agent programming was partially motivated by t...
