Architecture Internalisation in BIP

Simon Bliudze, Joseph Sifakis

We consider two approaches for building component-based systems, which we call respectively architecture-based and architecture-agnostic. The former consists in describing coordination constraints in a purely declarative manner through parameterizable glue ...

Configuration logics: Modeling architecture styles

Simon Bliudze, Joseph Sifakis, Anastasia Mavridou, Eduard Baranov

We study a framework for the specification of architecture styles as families of architectures involving a common set of types of components and coordination mechanisms. The framework combines two logics: 1) interaction logics for the specification of arch ...

Ordering Events Based on Intentionality in Cyber-Physical Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab, Maaz Mashood Mohiuddin

We consider cyber-physical systems (CPSs) comprising a central controller that might be replicated for high-reliability, and one or more process agents. The controller receives measurements from process agents, causing it to compute and issue setpoints tha ...

A Theory Agenda for Component-Based Design

Simon Bliudze, Joseph Sifakis

The aim of the paper is to present a theory agenda for component-based design based on results that motivated the development of the BIP component framework, to identify open problems and discuss further research directions. The focus is on proposing a sem ...

Verification of Component-based Systems via Predicate Abstraction and Simultaneous Set Reduction

Simon Bliudze, Qiang Wang

This paper presents a novel safety property verification approach for component-based systems modelled in BIP (Behaviour, Interaction and Priority), encompassing multiparty synchronisation with data transfer and priority. Our contributions consist of: (1 ...

Coordination of Dynamic Software Components with JavaBIP

Simon Bliudze, Anastasia Mavridou

JavaBIP allows the coordination of software components by clearly separating the functional and coordination aspects of the system behavior. JavaBIP implements the principles of the BIP component framework rooted in rigorous operational semantics. Recent w ...

Relating BIP and Reo

Simon Bliudze

Coordination languages simplify design and development of concurrent systems. Particularly, exogenous coordination languages, like BIP and Reo, enable system designers to express the interactions among components in a system explicitly. In this paper we es ...

Towards a Theory of Glue

Simon Bliudze

We propose and study the notions of behaviour type and composition operator making a first step towards the definition of a formal framework for studying behaviour composition in a setting sufficiently general to provide insight into how the component-base ...

Architecture Diagrams: A Graphical Language for Architecture Style Specification

Simon Bliudze, Joseph Sifakis, Anastasia Mavridou, Eduard Baranov

Architecture styles characterise families of architectures sharing common characteristics. We have recently proposed configuration logics for architecture style specification. In this paper, we study a graphical notation to enhance readability and easiness ...

Applying model checking to industrial-sized PLC programs

Simon Bliudze, Jean-Charles Tournier

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are embedded computers widely used in industrial control systems. Ensuring that a PLC software complies with its specification is a challenging task. Formal verification has become a recommended practice to ensure the ...

Quarts: Quick Agreement for Real-Time Control Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab

Real-time control systems (RTCSs) tolerate delay and crash faults by replicating the controller. Each replica computes and issues setpoints to actuators over a network that might drop or delay messages. Hence, the actuators might receive an inconsistent se ...

Axo: Masking Delay Faults in Real-Time Control Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab, Maaz Mashood Mohiuddin

We consider real-time control systems that consist of a controller that computes and sends setpoints to be implemented in physical processes through process agents. We focus on systems that use commercial off-the-shelf hardware and software components. Set ...

Axo: Tolerating Delay Faults in Real-Time Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab, Maaz Mashood Mohiuddin

We address delay faults: faults that cause a software component to take more time for completing an action than a given deadline. Such faults are particularly of interest in real- time mission-critical control applications that use general-purpose computin ...

Offer semantics: Achieving compositionality, flattening and full expressiveness for the glue operators in BIP

Simon Bliudze, Eduard Baranov

Based on a concise but comprehensive overview of some fundamental properties required from component-based frameworks, namely compositionality, incrementality, flattening, modularity and expressiveness, we review three modifications of the semantics of glu ...

Architecture-based Design: A Satellite On-board Software Case Study

Simon Bliudze, Joseph Sifakis, Anton Ivanov, Anastasia Mavridou

In this case study, we apply the architecture-based design approach to the control software of the CubETH satellite. Architectures are a means for ensuring global coordination properties and thus, achieving correctness of complex systems by construction. T ...

Formal verification of infinite-state BIP models

Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab

We propose two expressive and complementary techniques for the verification of safety properties of infinite-state BIP models. Both our techniques deal with the full BIP specification, while the existing approaches impose con- siderable restrictions: they ...

Constraint-Flow Nets: A Model for Building Constraints from Resource Dependencies

Simon Bliudze, Alena Simalatsar, Alina Zolotukhina

The major research in the resource management literature focuses primarily on two complementary sub-problems: (1) specification languages for formulating resource requests and (2) constraint problems modelling allocation and scheduling. Both directions ass ...
