Safety Verification of an Aircraft Landing Protocol: A Refinement Approach
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a new approach for formal verification of hybrid systems. To do so, we present a new refinement proof technique, a weak refinement using step in...

Structured decomposition of adaptive applications
We describe an approach to automate certain highlevel implementation decisions in a pervasive application, allowing them to be postponed until run time. Our system enables a model...

Relaxed optimization for mode estimation in skid steering
— Skid-steered vehicles, by design, must skid in order to maneuver. The skidding causes the vehicle to behave discontinuously as well as introduces complications to the observati...
