Abstract. The concurrent constraint pi-calculus (cc-pi-calculus) has been introduced as a model for concluding Service Level Agreements. The cc-pi calculus combines the synchronous...
In this paper we define the Weak Mutual Exclusion (WME) problem. Analogously to classical Distributed Mutual Exclusion (DME), WME serializes the accesses to a shared resource. Di...
To help programmers of high-performance computing (HPC) systems avoid communication-related errors, we employ a formal process algebra, Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP), w...
This paper describes an experiment to use the Spin model checking system to support automated verification of time partitioning in the Honeywell DEOS real-time scheduling kernel. ...

Abstract. The identification of consistent sets of arguments is one of the most important concerns in the development of computational models of argument. Such extensions drive the...
