As software complexity increases, so does the need for precision. For some areas, such as
high-integrity and safety-critical domains, this precision is imperative rather than optional. To …

Circus is a formal language that combines the Z and CSP notations. It takes advantage of
the strengths of each of these languages: from Z, it brings the possibility of specifying …

CSP# is a formal modeling language that emphasizes the design of communication in
concurrent systems. PAT framework provides a model checking environment for the …

This paper describes three optimization techniques for the eb3 process algebra. The
optimizations are expressed in a new deterministic operational semantics which is shown to …

Coordination languages allow us to separate interaction behavior from the sequential
functional aspects of the components of concurrent systems. This helps us to reduce the …

For every development project, a development agent takes on the responsibility for and
assumes the risk of completing that project successfully. This is a daunting task because, at …

The construction of concurrent programs is especially complex due mainly to the inherent
non-determinism of their execution, which makes it difficult to repeat test scenarios. Process …

The implementation of network security protocols has not received the same level of
attention in the literature as their analysis. Security protocol analysis has successfully used …

Complex concurrent systems are in general hard to understand, and equally hard to specify
and to verify. The process algebra Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP) offers a way …

A verificação de modelos formais gerados a partir de programas concorrentes tem sido bem
aceita na indústria e na academia durante a fase de testes. A busca por qualidade de …
