We discuss the challenges of building a simulation framework for hybrid systems, in particular the well-known Zeno effect and correct composition of models idealised by abstracting irrelevant behavioural details (e.g. the bounce dynamics of a bouncing ball ...

We propose and study the notions of behaviour type and composition operator making a first step towards the definition of a formal framework for studying behaviour composition in a setting sufficiently general to provide insight into how the component-base ...
Coordinating component behaviour and, in particular, concurrent access to resources is among the key difficulties of building large concurrent systems. To address this, developers must be able to manipulate high-level concepts, such as Finite State Machine ...
Testing of critical PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) programs remains a challenging task for control system engineers as it can rarely be automated. This paper proposes a model-based approach which uses the BIP (Behavior, Interactions and Priorities) fr ...
We introduce a method for studying temporal behaviour of the so-called Globally Asynchronous, Locally Synchronous (GALS) systems, that is systems consisting of synchronous computing elements communicating over asynchronous channels. Our method is based on ...
Based on a concise but comprehensive overview of some fundamental properties required from component-based frameworks, namely compositionality, incrementality, flattening, modularity and expressiveness, we review three modifications of the semantics of glu ...

Based on a variation of the BIP operational semantics using the offer predicate introduced in our previous work, we extend the algebras used to model glue operators in BIP to encompass priorities. This extension uses the Algebra of Causal Interaction Trees ...
We study glue operators used in component-based frameworks to obtain systems as the composition of atomic components described as labeled transition systems (LTS). Glue operators map tuples of LTS into LTS. They restrict the behavior of their arguments by ...
