Proposal for Inspector for Properties of Canvas-like Visualizations in ProM 6

Proposal for Inspector for Properties of Canvas-like Visualizations in ProM 6

While ProM does not contain editors, it does contain many graphical visualizations.  A non-trivial subset of these are canvas-like in nature, a very prominent example being graph-like visualizations.  One of the graph-like visualizations is the Petri net visualizer.  Canvas-like visualizations share the property that […]

Characteristics of a Parallel State-space Analysis Algorithm

Characteristics of a Parallel State-space Analysis Algorithm

I’m running some experiments with a parallel implementation of state-space generation and observed something very interesting. I was running the experiments on my own computer (iMac, Core i7 2.8 GHz w/ 4 cores (8 HT) and 8 GiB 1067 MHz RAM).  The experiment has […]
