Model checking and other finite-state analysis techniques have been very successful when used with hardware systems and less successful with software systems. It is especially di...
This paper describes an architecture analysis tool-set supporting the evolutionary improvement of the software architecture of an existing medical imaging system. The toolset has ...
Two main issues need to be covered when dealing with the dependability of component-based systems: quality assurance of reusable software components and quality assurance of the a...
