Formal Architecture Specification for Time Analysis

چکیده
WCET calculus is nowadays a must for safety critical systems. As a matter of fact, basic real-time properties rely on accurate timings. Although over the last years, substantial progress has been made in order to get a more precise WCET, we believe that the design of the underlying frameworks deserve more attention. In this paper, we are concerned mainly with two aspects which deal with the modularity of these frameworks. First, we enhance the existing language Sim-nML for describing processors at the instruction level in order to capture modern architecture aspects. Second, we propose a light DSL in order to describe, in a formal prose, architectural aspects related to both the structural aspects as well as to the behavioral aspects.

Java-MaC: A Run-Time Assurance Approach for Java Programs
We describe Java-MaC, a prototype implementation of the Monitoring and Checking (MaC) architecture for Java programs. The MaC architecture provides assurance that the target program is running correctly with respect to a formal requirements specification by monitoring and checking the execution of the target program at run-time. MaC bridges the gap between formal verification, which ensures the...

Web Service Choreography Description Language (WS-CDL) describes and orchestrates the services interactions among multiple participants. WS-CDL verification is essential since the interactions would lead to mismatches. Existing works verify the messages ordering, the flow of messages, and the expected results from collaborations. In this paper, we present a Z specification of WS-CDL. Besides ve...

Despite significant advances in the access control domain, requirements of new computational environments like web services still raise new challenges. Lack of appropriate method for specification of access control policies (ACPs), composition, verification and analysis of them have all made the access control in the composition of web services a complicated problem. In this paper, a new indepe...
