The paper introduces a method to model embedded dependability-critical systems as AND-composition of Guarded Statecharts which are special UMLstatecharts. With Guarded Statecharts...
We propose a novel method to measure the dependability of journaling file systems. In our approach, we build models of how journaling file systems must behave under different jo...

We give a formal account of a calculus for modeling service-based systems, suitable to describe both service composition (orchestration) and the protocol that services run when in...

We specify the black box behavior of dataflow components by characterizing the relation between their input and their output histories. We distinguish between three main classes of...
Abstract. In this paper, we show how Miquel's Implicit Calculus of Constructions (ICC) can be used as a programming language featuring dependent types. Since this system has a...
