We present an overview of results developed mainly at Verimag, by the author and his
colleagues, on a framework for component-based construction, characterized by the …

This paper presents a technique and a tool for model-checking operational (design level)
UML models based on a mapping to a model of communicating extended timed automata …

This paper describes an approach for real-time modelling in UML, focusing on analysis and
verification of time and scheduling-related properties. To this aim, a concrete UML profile …

In a companion paper [BPV06], we investigated the expressiveness of Time Petri Nets
extended with Priorities and showed that it is very close to that Timed Automata, in terms of …

The paper studies a distributed implementation method for the BIP (Behavior, Interaction,
Priority) component framework for modeling heterogeneous systems. BIP offers two powerful …

We build on a framework for modelling and investigating component-based systems that
strictly separates the description of behavior of components from the way they interact. We …

Priorities are used to control the execution of systems to meet given requirements for optimal
use of resources, eg, by using scheduling policies. For distributed systems it is hard to find …

In this paper, we investigate the control of infinite systems, modeled by symbolic transition
system for safety properties. We first redefine the concept of controllability by applying it to …

We propose invariant-based techniques for the efficient verification of safety and deadlock-
freedom properties of component-based systems. Components and their interactions are …

During the last decade, aadl is an emerging architecture description languages addressing
the modeling of embedded systems. Several research projects have shown that aadl …
