Fault tree analysis (FTA) is a very prominent method to analyze the risks related to safety and economically critical assets, like power plants, airplanes, data centers and web shops …
" This book is a comprehensive text for the design of safety critical, hard real-time embedded systems. It offers a splendid example for the balanced, integrated treatment of systems and …
The development of techniques for quantitative, model-based evaluation of computer system dependability has a long and rich history. A wide array of model-based evaluation …

System architects need quantitative security metrics to make informed trade-off decisions involving system security. The security metrics need to provide insight on weak points in the …
Many problems in manufacturing systems can be formulated via Markov stochastic modeling. This paper gives a review and classification of timed models of manufacturing …
We prove that the optimal lumping quotient of a finite Markov chain can be constructed in O (mlgn) time, where n is the number of states and m is the number of transitions. Our proof …
This paper presents MODEST (modeling and description language for stochastic timed systems), a formalism that is intended to support 1) the modular description of reactive …
The behavior of many technical systems that are increasingly important in our every-day life can be described by discrete states and state-changing events. Discrete event systems …
