Many fault-tolerant architectures are based on the single-fault assumption, hence accumulation of dormant faults represents a potential reliability hazard. Based on the example of...
We define a core language combining computational and architectural primitives, and study how static typing may be used to ensure safety properties of component composition and dyn...

The inherent vagueness and ambiguity of non-monotonic reasoning makes it impossible to formulate detailed specifications to validate KBS performance by using traditional test-case...
In this paper we investigate factors of the testability of object-oriented software systems. The starting point is given by a study of the literature to obtain both an initial mod...
