We propose a hybrid process calculus for modelling and reasoning on cyber-physical systems (CPS{s}). The dynamics of the calculus is expressed in terms of a labelled transition system in the SOS style of Plotkin. This is used to define a…

This document provides a theoretical-methodological ground to sustain the idea that the IoT builds the structure of awareness of large-scale infrastructures viewed as techno-social cyber-physical systems, which are special cases of…

This paper presents the Soda language for verifying multi-agent systems. Soda is a high-level functional and object-oriented language that supports the compilation of its code not only to Scala, a strongly statically typed high-level…

The design of IoT systems could benefit from the combination of two different analyses. We perform a first analysis to approximate how data flow across the system components, while the second analysis checks their communication soundness.…

Evaluation of service oriented system has been a challenge, though there are large number of evaluation metrics exist but none of them is efficient to evaluate these systems effectively.This paper discusses the different testing tools and…

Formal verification of neuro-symbolic cyber-physical systems, such as drones, medical devices and robots, is complicated. Neural components must be trained to be optimal with respect to the available data as well as the safety…

Today's computing landscape has been gradually shifting to applications targeting distributed and *heterogeneous* systems, such as cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. These applications are predominantly *concurrent*,…

One of the most challenging tasks in software specifications engineering for a multi-agent system is to ensure correctness. As these systems have high concurrency, often have dynamic environments, the formal specification and verification…

It is important to have multi-agent robotic system specifications that ensure correctness properties of safety and liveness. As these systems have concurrency, and often have dynamic environment, the formal specification and verification of…

Systems of systems (SoS) are a hot topic in our "fully connected global world". Our aim is not to provide another definition of what SoS are, but rather to focus on the adequacy of reusing standard system architecting techniques within this…

Building software-driven systems that are easily understood becomes a challenge, with their ever-increasing complexity and autonomy. Accordingly, recent research efforts strive to aid in designing explainable systems. Nevertheless, a common…

Robotic systems are widely used to interact with humans or to perform critical tasks. As a result, it is imperative to provide guarantees about their behavior. Due to the modularity and complexity of robotic systems, their design and…

This article introduces a fully automated verification technique that permits to analyze real-time systems described using a continuous notion of time and a mixture of operational (i.e., automata-based) and descriptive (i.e., logic-based)…

System integration testing is the process of testing a system by the stepwise integration of sub-components. Usually these sub-components are already verified to guarantee their correct functional behavior. By integration of these verified…

The complexity of modern software systems entails the need for reconfiguration mechanisms gov- erning the dynamic evolution of their execution configurations in response to both external stimulus or internal performance measures. Formally,…

We discuss hybrid systems in which a mechanical oscillator is coupled to another (microscopic) quantum system, such as trapped atoms or ions, solid-state spin qubits, or superconducting devices. We summarize and compare different coupling…

Motivated by the Model-Based Design process for Cyber-Physical Systems, we consider issues in conformance testing of systems. Conformance is a quantitative notion of similarity between the output trajectories of systems, which considers…

Internet of Things applications impact more and more industrial areas such as smart manufacturing, smart health monitoring and home automation; physical objects or devices equipped with sensors and actuators are interconnected and then…

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are systems controlled by one or more computer-based components tightly integrated with a set of physical components, typically described as sensors and actuators, that can either be directly attached to the…

The need for performance measurement tools appeared soon after the emergence of the first Object-Oriented Database Management Systems (OODBMSs), and proved important for both designers and users (Atkinson \& Maier, 1990). Performance…
