We propose a framework for reasoning about unbounded dynamic networks of infinite-state processes. We propose Constrained Petri Nets (CPN) as generic models for these networks. They can be seen as Petri nets where tokens (representing…

Trading systems are software platforms that support the exchange of securities (e.g., company shares) between participants. In this paper, we present a method to search for deviations in trading systems by checking conformance between…

Green supply chain is an emerging approach in supply chain management to reduce environmental impact of the process concerning the flow of goods and materials. As a discrete-event system, supply chain can be modeled using Petri Nets.…

High-level Petri net such as Coloured Petri Nets (CPNs) are characterised by the combination of Petri nets and a high-level programming language. In the context of CPNs and CPN Tools, the inscriptions (e.g., arc expressions and guards) are…

Software testing is the process of determining the precision, quality, completeness and security of the software systems. An important step in testing software is the generation of test cases, whose quality plays a vital role in determining…

When checking concurrent software using a finite-state model, we face a formidable state explosion problem. One solution to this problem is dependence-based program slicing, whose use can effectively reduce verification time. It is…

Barwise and Seligman stated the first principle of information flow: "Information flow results from regularities in the distributed system." They represent a distributed system in terms of a classification consisting of a set of objects or…

Interlocking tables are the functional specification defining the routes on which the passage of the train is allowed. Associated with the route, the states and actions of all related signalling equipment are also specified. It is…

Stochastic Petri nets are commonly used for modeling distributed systems in order to study their performance and dependability. This paper proposes a realization of stochastic Petri nets in SystemC for modeling large embedded control…

We present a logical system CFP (Concurrent Fixed Point Logic) supporting the extraction of nondeterministic and concurrent programs that are provably total and correct. CFP is an intuitionistic first-order logic with inductive and…

Safe Rust guarantees memory safety through strict compile-time constraints: ownership can be transferred, borrowing can temporarily guarantee either shared read-only or exclusive write access, and ownership and borrowing are scoped by…

This paper presents the benefits of formal modelling and verification techniques for self-stabilising distributed algorithms. An algorithm is studied, that takes a set of processes connected by a tree topology and converts it to a ring…

The recently introduced formalism of DB-nets has brought in a new conceptual way of modelling complex dynamic systems that equally account for the process and data dimensions, considering local data as well as persistent, transactional…

This paper introduces the concept of plant model generation from the recorded traces of events using the process mining technique. The event logs are obtained by visually simulating a simple distributed manufacturing system using the OPC UA…

The analysis of biological networks has benefited from the richness of Boolean networks (BNs) and the associated theory. These results have been further fortified in recent years by the emergence of Most Permissive (MP) semantics, combining…

Data management and analysis tasks are often carried out using spreadsheet software. A popular feature in most spreadsheet platforms is the ability to define data-dependent formatting rules. These rules can express actions such as "color…

We present a logical system CFP (Concurrent Fixed Point Logic) from whose proofs one can extract nondeterministic and concurrent programs that are provably total and correct with respect to the proven formula. CFP is an intuitionistic…

This paper proposes a novel model-based approach to combine the quantitative dependability (safety, reliability, availability, maintainability and IT security) analysis and trade-off analysis. The proposed approach is called DPN…

We present a model checking approach for the verification of data flow correctness in networks during concurrent updates of the network configuration. This verification problem is of great importance for software-defined networking (SDN),…

Reversible computations constitute an unconventional form of computing where any sequence of performed operations can be undone by executing in reverse order at any point during a computation. It has been attracting increasing attention as…
