Distributed systems employed in critical infrastructures must fulfill dependability, timeliness, and performance specifications. Since these systems most often operate in an unpredictable environment, their design and maintenance require quantitative evaluation of deterministic and probabilistic timed models. This need gave birth to an abundant literature devoted to formal modeling languages combined with analytical and simulative solution techniques The aim of the book is to provide an overview of techniques and methodologies dealing with such specific issues in the context of distributed systems and covering aspects such as performance evaluation, reliability/availability, energy efficienc...
The TOOLS EE (Technology of Object-Oriented Languages and Systems Eastern Europe) conference series combines the experience with object technology and its applications in industrial environments, with an academically-oriented vision. They offer a meeting place for Eastern European experts and practitioners, and their colleagues from all over the world. Technology of Object-Oriented Languages, Systems and Architectures is a compilation of contributing papers presented at TOOLS Eastern Europe 2000 and 2002, respectively, second and third conference in this series. Both conferences were held in Eastern Europe, more specifically in Sofia, Bulgaria. Technology of Object-Oriented Languages, Systems and Architectures is designed to meet the needs of a professional audience composed of in computer science and engineering.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 4th International Symposium on Trustworthy Global Computing, TGC 2008 held in Barcelona, Spain, in November 2008. The 12 revised papers presented together with one invited paper were carefully selected from 26 submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The TGC 2008 symposium papers focus on providing tools and frameworks for constructing well-behaved applications and for reasoning about their behavior and properties in models of computation that incorporate code and data mobility over distributed networks with highly dynamic topologies and heterogeneous devices.
The AMAST movement was initiated in 1989 with the First International C- ference on Algebraic Methodology and Software Technology (AMAST), held on May 21{23in Iowa City, Iowa,and aimed at setting the development of software technology on a mathematical basis. The virtue of the software technology en- sioned by AMAST is the capability to produce software that has the following properties: (a) it is correct and its correctness can be proved mathematically, (b) it is safe, such that it can be used in the implementation of critical systems, (c) it is portable, i. e. , it is independent of computing platforms and language generations, and (d) it is evolutionary, i. e. , it is self-adaptable and evolves with the problem domain. Ten years later a myriad of workshops, conferences, and researchprogramsthat sharethe goalsof the AMAST movementhaveoccurred. This can be taken as proof that the AMAST vision is right. However, often the myriad of workshops, conferences, and research programs lack the clear obj- tives and the coordination of their goals towards the software technology en- sioned by AMAST. This can be taken as a proof that AMAST is still necessary.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Trustworthy Global Computing, TGC 2013, held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in August 2013. The 15 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 29 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics in the area of global computing and safe and reliable computation. They are organized in topical sections on security, π-calculus, information flow, models, specifications and proofs and quantitative analysis.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Coordination Models and Language, COORDINATION 2022, held in Lucca, Italy, in June 2022, as part of the 17th International Federated Conference on Distributed Computing Techniques, DisCoTec 2022. The 11 regular papers and one short paper presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 22 submissions. COORDINATION provides a well-established forum for the growing community of researchers interested in coordination models and languages, architectures, verification and implementation techniques necessary to cope with the complexity induced by the demands of today's software development.
The refereed proceedings of the 30th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming, ICALP 2003, held in Eindhoven, The Netherlands in June/July 2003. The 84 revised full papers presented together with six invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 212 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on algorithms, process algebra, approximation algorithms, languages and programming, complexity, data structures, graph algorithms, automata, optimization and games, graphs and bisimulation, online problems, verification, the Internet, temporal logic and model checking, graph problems, logic and lambda-calculus, data structures and algorithms, types and categories, probabilistic systems, sampling and randomness, scheduling, and geometric problems.
