Eventual consistency aims to ensure that replicas of some mutable shared object converge
without foreground synchronisation. Previous approaches to eventual consistency are ad …

The key design challenges in the construction of a SAT-based relational model finder are
described, and novel techniques are proposed to address them. An efficient model finder …

Alloy is a formal language, which has been applied to modelling of systems in a wide range
of application domains. It is supported by Alloy Analyzer, a tool, which allows fully automated …

Abstract The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the de facto language used in the
industry for software specifications. Once an application has been specified, Model Driven …

Model Transformations can be used to bridge the gap between design and analysis
technical spaces by creating tools that allow a model produced by a designer to be …

We propose a methodology, based on aspect-oriented modeling (AOM), for incorporating
security mechanisms in an application. The functionality of the application is described using …

Alloy is a declarative language for lightweight modelling and analysis of software. The core
of the language is based on first-order relational logic, which offers an attractive balance …

Automatic analysis of UML models constrained by OCL invariants is still an open research
topic. Especially for critical systems, such tool support is important for early identification of …

Evolution is one of the most important parts of the software development process. One of the
negative consequences of software development is design erosion. Refactoring is a …

Syntax-guided synthesis searches for an implementation of a given specification by
exploring large spaces of candidate programs. Sketches reduce these search spaces …
