Abstract. The aim of the work is to develop formal models of interaction and of the related support infrastructures, that overcome the limits of the current approaches. We propose ...
PEPA has recently been extended with functional rates [1][2]. These functions allow the specification of indirect interaction between components in such a way that the rate of an a...
Discovering additive structure is an important step towards understanding a complex multi-dimensional function because it allows the function to be expressed as the sum of lower-d...
An advanced processing machine interacts with the material handling system, personnel and cell or shop floor controller in real-time via messaging and control. However, current si...
Various cognitive and computational models have addressed the use of previous experience to understand a new domain. In particular, research in case-based reasoning has explored t...
