Visible to the public Generalized Synchronization Trees

Submitted by Rance Cleaveland on Mon, 11/10/2014 - 1:44pm. Contributors:

Abstract:

The PIs are developing their novel modeling paradigm, Generalized Synchronization Trees (GSTs), into a rich framework for both describing cyber-physical systems (CPSs) and studying their behavior under interconnection. GSTs were inspired by Milner's use of Synchronization Trees (STs) to model interconnected computing processes, but GSTs generalize the mathematical structure of their forebears in such a way as to encompass many classes of CPSs.
