The provision of efficient methods and tool support for the development and engineering of distributed systems is a key enabling factor for the evolution of Information Technology...
Abstract. To model real-life critical systems, one needs“high-level”languages to express three important concepts: complex data structures, concurrency, and real-time. So far, ...
We examine the problem of scheduling concurrent independent flows on multiple-disk I/O storage systems. Two models are considered: in the shared buffer model the memory buffer is ...
We survey some issues that relate to context dependence and context sensitivity in the development of software, particularly in relation to information systems by defining a range...
Concurrent general composition relates to a setting where a secure protocol is run in a network concurrently with other, arbitrary protocols. Clearly, security in such a setting i...
