Performance characteristics, such as response time, throughput and scalability, are key quality attributes of distributed applications. Current practice, however, rarely applies s...
Individual dies in 3D integrated circuits are connected using throughsilicon-vias (TSVs). TSVs not only increase manufacturing cost, but also incur silicon area, delay, and power ...
A static analysis design is sufficient if it can prove the property of interest with an acceptable number of false alarms. Ultimately, the only way to confirm that an analysis d...
With the advent of in-home networking and ubiquitous computing, it becomes apparent that we have an increasing need for automatic adaptation of user interfaces to different device...
Based on the FOCUS theory of distributed systems (see [Broy, Stølen 01]) that are composed of interacting components we introduce a formal model of services and layered architectu...
