On the Specification and Monitoring of Timed Normative Systems
(2022)In this article we explore different issues and design choices that arise when considering how to fully embrace timed aspects in the formalisation of normative systems, e.g., by using deontic modalities, looking primarily ... -
Runtime Verification of Kotlin Coroutines
(2022)Kotlin was introduced to Android as the recommended language for development. One of the unique functionalities of Kotlin is that of coroutines, which are lightweight tasks that can run concurrently inside threads. Programming ... -
AspectSol: A Solidity Aspect-Oriented Programming Tool with Applications in Runtime Verification
(International Conference on Runtime Verification, 2022)Aspect-oriented programming tools aim to provide increased code modularity by enabling programming of cross-cutting concerns separate from the main body of code. Since the inception of runtime verification, aspect-oriented ... -
Tainting in Smart Contracts: Combining Static and Runtime Verification
(Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series (LNCS,volume 13498), 2022)Smart contracts exist immutably on blockchains, making their pre-deployment correctness essential. Moreover, they exist openly on blockchains—open for interaction with any other smart contract and offchain entity. Interaction, ... -
Model Checking Reconfigurable Interacting Systems
(International Symposium on Leveraging Applications of Formal Methods, 2022)Reconfigurable multi-agent systems consist of a set of autonomous agents, with integrated interaction capabilities that feature opportunistic interaction. Agents seemingly reconfigure their interactions interfaces by forming ... -
Runtime Verification meets Controller Synthesis
(2022)Reactive synthesis guarantees correct-by-construction controllers from logical specifications, but is costly—2EXPTIME-complete in the size of the specification. In a practical setting, the desired controllers need to ... -
R-CHECK: A Model Checker for Verifying Reconfigurable MAS
(AAMAS 2022, 2022)Reconfigurable multi-agent systems consist of a set of autonomous agents, with integrated interaction capabilities that feature opportunistic interaction. Agents seemingly reconfigure their interactions interfaces by ... -
Incorporating Monitors in Reactive Synthesis without Paying the Price
(19th International Symposium on Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis, 2021)Temporal synthesis attempts to construct reactive programs that satisfy a given declarative (LTL) formula. Practitioners have found it challenging to work exclusively with declarative speci cations, and have found ... -
Actions over Core-closed Knowledge Bases
(2022)We present new results on the application of semantic- and knowledge-based reasoning techniques to the analysis of cloud deployments. In particular, to the security of Infrastructure as Code configuration files, encoded ... -

Ready for Prime Time, - Yes, Industrial-Grade Modelling Tools can be Used in Education
(University of Gothenburg, 2015-10-16)It has been stated that industrial-grade modelling tools are unsuit- able for teaching modelling. In this paper, we present our experience with a university course on software modelling. In the first year of the course, ... -
Report from the GI Dagstuhl Seminar 14433: Software engineering for Self-Adaptive Systems
(2014-10-24)Products and services such as business applications, vehicles, or devices in various domains such as transportation, communication, energy, production, or health. Consequently, our daily lives highly depend on such ... -
Model-Based Engineering for Embedded Systems in Practice
(2014-11-18)Model-Based Engineering (MBE) aims at increasing the e↵ectiveness of engineering by using models as key artifacts in the development process. While empirical studies on the use and the e↵ects of MBE in industry generally ... -
Results from Two Controlled Experiments on the Effect of Using Requirement Diagrams on the Requirements Comprehension
(University of Gothenburg, 2013-04-02)We carried out a controlled experiment and an external replication to investigate whether the use of requirement diagrams of the SysML (System Modeling Language) helps in the comprehensibility of requirements. The ... -
A Light-Weight Defect Classification Scheme for Embedded Automotive Software Development
(2013-01-25)Objective: Systematic software defect documentation is an essential part of software development process models as a means of early identification of patterns in defect inflow. Such documentation, however, may often be a ... -
Proceedings of the 2nd Workshop on Experiences and Empirical Studies in Software Modelling
(2012-09-28)The International Workshop on Experiences and Empirical Studies in Software Modelling (EESSMod) is a satellite event of the ACM/IEEE International Conference on Model Driven Engineering Languages and Systems (MoDELS), ... -
Towards Formalizing Assumptions on Architectural Level: A Proof-of-Concept
(Departmen of Computer Science and Engineering, 2012-09-10)While designing an architecture, architects often make assumptions about different factors like execution environment, structural properties of the artifacts, properties of input/output data etc. Implicit and invalid ... -
