A consensus problem consists of finding a distributed control strategy that brings the state or output of a group of agents to a common value, a consensus point. In this paper, we...
Abstract. This paper presents a novel technique for counterexample generation in probabilistic model checking of Markov chains and Markov Decision Processes. (Finite) paths in coun...
The algebraic hierarchical decomposition of finite state automata can be applied wherever a finite system should be `understood' using a hierarchical coordinate system. Here ...
Abstract. In the context of Service Oriented Computing, contracts are descriptions of the observable message-passing behavior of services. Contracts have been already successfully ...
We study the existence of automatic presentations for various algebraic structures. An automatic presentation of a structure is a description of the universe of the structure by a...
