Construction and Verification of Performance and Reliability Models

نویسنده

  • Holger Hermanns
چکیده

Over the last two decades formal methods have been extended towards performance and reliability evaluation. This paper tries to provide a rather intuitive explanation of the basic concepts and features in this area. Instead of striving for mathematical rigour, the intention is to give an illustrative introduction to the basics of stochastic models, to stochastic modelling using process algebra, and to model checking as a technique to analyse stochastic models. In Bulletin of the EATCS (74), p. 135-154, 2001.

Modeling and Evaluation of Stochastic Discrete-Event Systems with RayLang Formalism

In recent years, formal methods have been used as an important tool for performance evaluation and verification of a wide range of systems. In the view points of engineers and practitioners, however, there are still some major difficulties in using formal methods. In this paper, we introduce a new formal modeling language to fill the gaps between object-oriented programming languages (OOPLs) us...

Verification of an Evolutionary-based Wavelet Neural Network Model for Nonlinear Function Approximation

Nonlinear function approximation is one of the most important tasks in system analysis and identification. Several models have been presented to achieve an accurate approximation on nonlinear mathematics functions. However, the majority of the models are specific to certain problems and systems. In this paper, an evolutionary-based wavelet neural network model is proposed for structure definiti...

Location and prioritization the underground dam using SWAT and MADM models

The construction of underground dams for storing groundwater resources can be one of the suitable solutions for the supply and development of water resources. If these dams are properly implemented, can be stored water in wet season and used in dry periods. This study was conducted to select appropriate sites for the construction of underground dams in the Keryan-Minab watershed in Hormozgan pr...

Use of the Shearlet Transform and Transfer Learning in Offline Handwritten Signature Verification and Recognition

Despite the growing growth of technology, handwritten signature has been selected as the first option between biometrics by users. In this paper, a new methodology for offline handwritten signature verification and recognition based on the Shearlet transform and transfer learning is proposed. Since, a large percentage of handwritten signatures are composed of curves and the performance of a sig...
