An Approach to Formally Specifying the Behaviour of Mixed-Criticality Systems

Authors: A. Burns and Cliff B. Jones

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 231, 34th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2022)


Abstract
This paper proposes a formal framework for describing the relationship between a criticality-aware scheduler and a set of application tasks that are assigned different criticality levels. The exposition employs a series of examples starting with scheduling simple jobs and then moving on to mixed-criticality robust and resilient tasks. The proposed formalism extends the rely-guarantee approach, which facilitates formal reasoning about the functional behaviour of concurrent systems, to address real-time properties.

AI meets Formal Software Development (Dagstuhl Seminar 12271)

Authors: Alan Bundy, Dieter Hutter, Cliff B. Jones, and J Strother Moore

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 2, Issue 7 (2013)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 12271 ``AI meets Formal Software Development''. This seminar brought together researchers from formal methods and AI. The participants addressed the issue of how AI can aid the formal software development process, including modelling and proof. There was a pleasing number of participants from industry and this made it possible to ground the discussions on industrial-scale problems.

The Atomic Manifesto: a Story in Four Quarks

Authors: Cliff Jones, David Lomet, Alexander Romanovsky, Gerhard Weikum, Alan Fekete, Marie-Claude Gaudel, Henry F. Korth, Rogerio de Lemos, Eliot Moss, Ravi Rajwar, Krithi Ramamritham, Brian Randell, and Luis Rodrigues

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 4181, Atomicity in System Design and Execution (2004)


Abstract
This report summarizes the viewpoints and insights gathered in the Dagstuhl Seminar on Atomicity in System Design and Execution, which was attended by 32 people from four different scientific communities: database and transaction processing systems, fault tolerance and dependable systems, formal methods for system design and correctness reasoning, and hardware architecture and programming languages. Each community presents its position in interpreting the notion of atomicity and the existing state of the art, and each community identifies scientific challenges that should be addressed in future work. In addition, the report discusses common themes across communities and strategic research problems that require multiple communities to team up for a viable solution. The general theme of how to specify, implement, compose, and reason about extended and relaxed notions of atomicity is viewed as a key piece in coping with the pressing issue of building and maintaining highly dependable systems that comprise many components with complex interaction patterns.

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6121, Atomicity: A Unifying Concept in Computer Science (2006)


Abstract
From 19.03.06 to 24.03.06, the Dagstuhl Seminar 06121 ``Atomicity: A Unifying Concept in Computer Science'' was held in the International Conference and Research Center (IBFI), Schloss Dagstuhl. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available.

06121 Executive Summary – Atomicity: A Unifying Concept in Computer Science

Authors: Gerhard Weikum, Clifford B. Jones, David Lomet, and Alexander Romanovsky

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6121, Atomicity: A Unifying Concept in Computer Science (2006)


Abstract
This seminar was based on and continued the interaction of different computer-science communities that was begun in an earlier Dagstuhl seminar in April 2004. Both seminars have aimed at a deeper understanding of the fundamental concept of atomic actions and their roles in system design, execution, modeling, and correctness reasoning, and at fostering collaboration, synergies, and a unified perspective across largely separated research communities. Each of the two seminar brought together about 30 researchers and industrial practitioners from the four areas of database and transaction processing systems, fault tolerance and dependable systems, formal methods, and to smaller extent, hardware architecture and programming languages. The interpretations and roles of the atomicity concept(s) vary substantially across these communities. For example, the emphasis in database systems is on algorithms and implementation techniques for atomic transactions, whereas in dependable systems and formal methods atomicity is viewed as an intentionally imposed or postulated property of system components to simplify designs and increase dependability. Nevertheless, all four communities share the hope that it will eventually be possible to unify the different scientific viewpoints into more coherent foundations, system development principles, design methodologies, and usage guidelines.
