We develop a theory of bisimulations in the join-calculus. We introduce a refined operational model that makes interactions with the environment explicit, and discuss the impact o...
This study details the synergistic application of ergonomic analysis, discrete-process simulation, and statistical analysis to the problems of determining the optimum design for a...
A new scheme for interactively testing what-if and alternative scenarios in parallel simulations is presented. Potential branches or choices can be specified interactively and in...
characterization of indulgence in an abstract computing model that encompasses various communication and resilience schemes. We use our characterization to establish several result...
This paper presents an extension of an algebra of high-level Petri nets with operations for suspension and abortion. These operations are sound with respect to the semantics of pre...
