This tutorial will present an overview of the use of Monadic Second-Order Logic to describe sets of finite graphs and graph transformations, in relation with the notions of tree-w...
In the recent years, there have been a large amount of investigations on safety verification of uncertain continuous systems. In engineering and applied mathematics, this verificat...
Ontologies are at the heart of the semantic web. They define the concepts and relationships that make global interoperability possible. However, as these ontologies grow in size t...
We describe a (meta) formalism for defining a variety of (object oriented) data models in a unified framework based on a variation of first-order logic. As specific example we use...
While synchrony and asynchrony are two distinct concepts of concurrency theory, effective and formally defined embedded system design methodologies usually mix the best from both...
