چکیده

Semi-Markov Stochastic Petri Nets (SM-SPNs) are a highlevel formalism for defining semi-Markov processes. We present an extended Continuous Stochastic Logic (eCSL) which provides an expressive way to articulate performance queries at the SM-SPN model level. eCSL supports queries involving steady-state, transient and passage time measures. We demonstrate this by formulating and answering eCSL queries on an SM-SPN model of a distributed voting system with up to states.

Formal approach on modeling and predicting of software system security: Stochastic petri net

To evaluate and predict component-based software security, a two-dimensional model of software security is proposed by Stochastic Petri Net in this paper. In this approach, the software security is modeled by graphical presentation ability of Petri nets, and the quantitative prediction is provided by the evaluation capability of Stochastic Petri Net and the computing power of Markov chain. Each...

Mapping Activity Diagram to Petri Net: Application of Markov Theory for Analyzing Non-Functional Parameters

The quality of an architectural design of a software system has a great influence on achieving non-functional requirements of a system. A regular software development project is often influenced by non-functional factors such as the customers' expectations about the performance and reliability of the software as well as the reduction of underlying risks. The evaluation of non-functional paramet...

Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Energy Consumption in S-MAC Protocol Using Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets

One of the features of wireless sensor networks is that the nodes in this network have limited power sources. Therefore, assessment of energy consumption in these networks is very important. What has been common practice has been the use of traditional simulators to evaluate the energy consumption of the nodes in these networks. Simulators often have problems such as fluctuating output values i...
