This paper presents a way of encoding some kinds of dynamic reconfiguration behaviour in the interface portion of circuit descriptions. This has many advantages. The user of a rec...
A cellular automaton (CA) is a parallel synchronous computing model, which consists in a juxtaposition of finite automata (cells) whose state evolves according to that of their ne...
This paper elaborates on some of the fundamental contributions made by John Mylopoulos in the area of Requirements Engineering. We specifically focus on the use of goal models and ...
Creole is a new born language emerging in most cases where language contact takes place. Simulating behaviors that creole communities are formed in some environments, we could cont...
Retrenchment is a framework that allows relatively unrestricted system evolution steps to be described in a way that gives an evolution step some formal content — unlike model b...
