Abstract:

The location of various network resources is of outmost interest when trying to model and analyze various computing and communicating contemporary platforms. Formal methods - fault avoiding techniques for constructing robust software and systems - are instrumental in providing precise modeling formats and various analysis and development tools. In this chapter, the authors present their approach to embedding location information into action systems, a formal method dedicated to distributed systems that are not aware of their physical location.
