High level specification languages like CSP use mathematical objects as abstractions to
represent systems and processes. System behaviors are described as process expressions …

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a standard for modeling dynamic systems. UML
behavioral state machines are used for modeling the dynamic behavior of object-oriented …

Modeling and verifying complex real-time systems are challenging research problems. The
de facto approach is based on Timed Automata, which are finite state automata equipped …

Abstract Timed-Arc Petri Nets (TAPN) are an extension of the classical P/T nets with
continuous time. Tokens in TAPN carry an age and arcs between places and transitions are …

The paper proposes a modeling framework to support Monte Carlo simulations of the
behavior of a complex industrial system. The aim is to analyze the system dependability in …

Level crossings (LCs) are considered to be a safety black spot for railway transportation
since LC accidents/incidents dominate the railway accident landscape in Europe, thus …

In this work, we study model checking of compositional real-time systems. A system is
modeled using mutable data variables as well as a compositional timed process. Instead of …

The correctness of a time-critical system is closely related to the time of responding and
performing every event. Our motivation example, alternating bit protocol, and application …

Event-B is a formal language for systems modeling, based on set theoryand predicate logic.
It has the advantage of mechanized proof, and it is possible tomodel a system in several …

Timed automata are state-machine-like structures used to model real-time systems. Since
their invention in the early 1990s, a number of often subtly differing variants have appeared …
