UML State Machines constitute an integral part of software behavior specification within the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The development of realistic software applications often results in complex and distributed models. Hence, potential errors can be ...
Subtyping tests are essential in typed publish/subscribe infrastructures, especially when the underlying programming language supports subtype conformance, as in Java or C#. These tests are particularly challenging when the publish/subscribe infrastructure ...
There is an impedance mismatch between message-passing concurrency and virtual machines, such as the JVM. VMs usually map their threads to heavyweight OS processes. Without a lightweight process abstraction, users are often forced to write parts of concurr ...
Commercial Java virtual machines are designed to maximize the performance of applications at the expense of predictability. High throughput garbage collection algorithms, for example, can introduce pauses of 100 milliseconds or more. We are interested in s ...
Separation logic is a popular approach for specifying properties of recursive mutable data structures. Several existing systems verify a subclass of separation logic specifications using static analysis techniques. Checking data structure specifications du ...
This book provides the conceptual foundation for the design and development of complex distributed and real-time applications. It summarizes a large spectrum of concepts; but by concentrating on Java and presenting mainly the programmatic aspects and basic ...
Scala is a general-purpose programming language developed at EPFL. It combines concepts coming from object-oriented languages with other ones coming from functional languages. Scala is strongly typed and comes with a relatively complex type system, which i ...
We present a framework for distributed combinatorial optimization. The framework is implemented in Java, and simulates a multiagent environment in a single Java virtual machine. Each agent in the environment is executed asynchronously in a separate executi ...
The aim of this thesis is to construct toolsets that support the Synchronous Java programming language, an extension to the Java language that introduces a new method of synchronization between threads. The contributions of this thesis include a State Spac ...
When interfacing Java with other systems such as databases, programmers must often program in special interface languages like SQL. Code written in these languages often needs to be embedded in strings where they cannot be error-checked at compile-time, or ...
