— The inferencing stage of a type-2 fuzzy inferencing system is driven by join and meet operations. As conventionally implemented these algorithms are computationally complex. Th...
Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a method for assessing cause-consequence relations between component faults and hazards that may occur during the lifetime of a system. ...
We give a formal account of a calculus for modeling service-based systems, suitable to describe both service composition (orchestration) and the protocol that services run when in...
