Formal methods have been advocated for the verification of digital design where correctness is proved mathematically. In contrast to digital designs, the verification of analog ...
We present an approach to the question of evaluating worm defenses against future, yet unseen and possibly defense-aware worm behavior. Our scheme employs model checking to produc...
Hand-held devices have rigid constraints regarding power dissipation and energy consumption. Whether a new functionality can be supported often depends upon its power requirements...
We have implemented parallelism primitives that permit an ACL2 programmer to parallelize execution of ACL2 functions. We (1) introduce logical definitions for these primitives, (...
There is a wide agreement on the use of norms in order to specify the expected behaviour of agents in open MAS. However, in highly regulated domains, where norms dictate what can a...
