In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for enforcing relational consistency on every set of k constraints of a finite Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP). This algorithm ope...

In this paper, we introduce a component-based design methodology and present a practical analysis approach that makes use of the modular nature of component-based designs to allev...
We present a new construction based on modular groups. A novel element of our construction is to embed each input into a sequence of matrices with determinant ±1, the product of w...
Design constraints express essential behavioural properties of a software system. Two key elements of a scheme for enforcing design constraints are presented: a logic for describin...
An important step in the development of dependable systems is the validation of their fault tolerance properties. Fault injection has been widely used for this purpose, however wi...
