Chapter
We propose Klaim as a suitable base for a novel choreographic framework
Chapter and Conference Paper
The Global Sequence Protocol (GSP) is an operational model for replicated data stores, in which updates propagate asynchronously. We introduce the GSP-calculus as a formal model for GSP. We give a formal accou...
Chapter
In this paper we consider a calculus of connectors that allows for the most general combination of synchronisation, non-determinism and buffering. According to previous results, this calculus is tightly relate...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We focus on Hierarchical BIP, an extension of Joseph Sifakis et al’s BIP component framework, to provide a semantics-preserving, compositional encoding in the Petri calculus, a recently proposed algebra of sta...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Resolving non-deterministic choices of choreographies is a crucial task. We introduce a novel notion of realisability for choreographies –called whole-spectrum implementation– that rules out deterministic impleme...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Managing data over cloud infrastructures raises novel challenges with respect to existing and well studied approaches such as ACID and long running transactions. One of the main requirements is to provide avai...
Chapter
The growth and diffusion of reconfigurable and adaptive systems motivate the foundational study of models of software connectors that can evolve dynamically, as opposed to the better understood notion of stati...

Chapter
Recent years have witnessed an increasing interest about a rigorous modelling of (different classes of) connectors. Here, the term connector is used to name entities that can regulate the interaction of possib...
Chapter and Conference Paper
In the area of component-based software architectures, the term connector has been coined to denote an entity (e.g. the communication network, middleware or infrastructure) that regulates the interaction of indep...
Chapter and Conference Paper
A quite flourishing research thread in the recent literature on component-based system is concerned with the algebraic properties of various kinds of connectors for defining well-engineered systems. In a recen...
Chapter
In this paper we analyze how a powerful synchronization mechanism such as synchronous multiparty synchronizations, which is able to specify atomic reconfigurations of large systems, can be implemented using bi...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We introduce an extension of Graph Grammars (GGs), called Dynamic Graph Grammars (DynGGs), where the right-hand side of a production can spawn fresh parts of the type graph and fresh productions operating on i...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Cook and Misra’s Orc is an elegant language for orchestrating distributed services, able to cover e.g. van der Aalst’s workflow patterns. We aim to understand the key novel features of Orc by comparing it with va...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We address the problem of composing Web Services in long-running transactional business processes, where compensations must be dealt with appropriately. The framework presented in this paper is a Java API called
