Interrupt behaviors, especially the external ones, are difficult to verify in a microprocessor design project in that they involve both interacting hardware and software. This pap...
We observed a general problem of sequential programs, which often results in design and programming errors in industrial software engineering projects, and propose a solution appr...
When enacting a web service orchestration defined using the Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) we observed various safety property violations. This surprised us considerab...
