Foundations of Algebraic Specification and Formal Software Development
This book provides foundations for software specification and formal software development from the perspective of work on algebraic specification, concentrating on developing basic concepts and studying their fundamental properties. These foundations are built on a solid mathematical basis, using elements of universal algebra, category theory and logic, and this mathematical toolbox provides a convenient language for precisely formulating the concepts involved in software specification and development. Once formally defined, these notions become subject to mathematical investigation, and this interplay between mathematics and software engineering yields results that are mathematically intere...
Graph and Model Transformation
This book is a comprehensive explanation of graph and model transformation. It contains a detailed introduction, including basic results and applications of the algebraic theory of graph transformations, and references to the historical context. Then in the main part the book contains detailed chapters on M-adhesive categories, M-adhesive transformation systems, and multi-amalgamated transformations, and model transformation based on triple graph grammars. In the final part of the book the authors examine application of the techniques in various domains, including chapters on case studies and tool support. The book will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in the areas of theoretical computer science, software engineering, concurrent and distributed systems, and visual modelling.
Multi-Agent Systems and Applications
This book presents selected tutorial lectures given at the summer school on Multi-Agent Systems and Their Applications held in Prague, Czech Republic, in July 2001 under the sponsorship of ECCAI and Agent Link. The 20 lectures by leading researchers in the field presented in the book give a competent state-of-the-art account of research and development in the field of multi-agent systems and advanced applications. The book offers parts on foundations of MAS; social behaviour, meta-reasoning, and learning; and applications.
Formal Methods in Software and Systems Modeling
By presenting state-of-the-art research results on various aspects of formal and visual modeling of software and systems, this book commemorates the 60th birthday of Hartmut Ehrig. The 24 invited reviewed papers are written by students and collaborators of Hartmut Ehrig who are established researchers in their fields. Reflecting the scientific interest and work of Hartmut Ehrig, the papers fall into three main parts on graph transformation, algebraic specification and logic, and formal and visual modeling.
Symbolic model generation for graph properties
Graphs are ubiquitous in Computer Science. For this reason, in many areas, it is very important to have the means to express and reason about graph properties. In particular, we want to be able to check automatically if a given graph property is satisfiable. Actually, in most application scenarios it is desirable to be able to explore graphs satisfying the graph property if they exist or even to get a complete and compact overview of the graphs satisfying the graph property. We show that the tableau-based reasoning method for graph properties as introduced by Lambers and Orejas paves the way for a symbolic model generation algorithm for graph properties. Graph properties are formulated in a ...
Graph Transformations and Model-Driven Engineering
This festschrift volume, published in honor of Manfred Nagl on the occasion of his 65th birthday, contains 30 refereed contributions, that cover graph transformations, software architectures and reengineering, embedded systems engineering, and more.
Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering
ETAPS 2002 was the ?fth instance of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software. ETAPS is an annual federated conference that was established in 1998by combining a number of existing and new conferences. This year it comprised 5 conferences (FOSSACS, FASE, ESOP, CC, TACAS), 13 satellite workshops (ACL2, AGT, CMCS, COCV, DCC, INT, LDTA, SC, SFEDL, SLAP, SPIN, TPTS, and VISS), 8invited lectures (not including those speci?c to the satellite events), and several tutorials. The events that comprise ETAPS address various aspects of the system - velopment process, including speci?cation, design, implementation, analysis, and improvement. The languages, methodologies, and tools which support these - tivities are all well within its scope. Di?erent blends of theory and practice are represented, with an inclination towards theory with a practical motivation on one hand and soundly-based practice on the other. Many of the issues involved in software design apply to systems in general, including hardware systems, and the emphasis on software is not intended to be exclusive.
Formal Methods and Software Engineering
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods, ICFEM 2011, held in Durham, UK, October 2011. The 40 revised full papers together with 3 invited talks presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 103 submissions. The papers address all current issues in formal methods and their applications in software engineering. They are organized in topical sections on formal models; model checking and probability; specification and development; security; formal verification; cyber physical systems; event-B; verification, analysis and testing; refinement; as well as theorem proving and rewriting.
Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering, FASE 2010, held in Paphos, Cyprus, in March 2010, as part of ETAPS 2010, the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software. The 25 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 103 submissions. The volume also contains one invited talk. The topics covered are model transformation, software evolution, graph transformation, modeling concepts, verification, program analysis, testing and debugging, and performance modeling and analysis.
Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science
This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science, CALCO 2009, formed in 2005 by joining CMCS and WADT. This year the conference was held in Udine, Italy, September 7-10, 2009. The 23 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. They are presented together with four invited talks and workshop papers from the CALCO-tools Workshop. The conference was divided into the following sessions: algebraic effects and recursive equations, theory of coalgebra, coinduction, bisimulation, stone duality, game theory, graph transformation, and software development techniques.
