Live Streaming Lectures in dDist

After playing around with ustream for a bit, I decided to give it a shot for my lectures in Distributed Systems.  It seemed to go surprisingly well, so I now plan to stream live from lectures each Monday from 08:15-10:00 and each Wednesday from 09:15-10:00 (CEST). In addition to the live streams, I’ll also record […]

Server Move

Normally a post with this title would detail how I’ve moved from one server to another.  Not so this time.  I’ve moved my servers around to get a bit more room in my hallway.  Before the grand move, thing looked like this (click for larger version): Note that the 3D monitor is a 15″ monitor, […]

Math and Tools for Running Experiments

I’m running experiments for a paper, I’m currently working on.  We’re testing a new tool, we’re working on.  Of course, we compare it to our old tools, so I’m currently generating state spaces for 6 different CPN models.  Each model is parametrized, so in total I have 38 instances (at the moment).  In order to […]

Automatic Flattening of CPN Models

I’m working on a project to unfold coloured Petri nets (CP-nets or CPNs).  Our tool almost but not entirely supports hierarchical CPN models, so I have to make some flat models.  As both of our interesting examples (DYMO and ERDP) are hightly hierarchical, I need to flatten them. Luckily, our tool, CPN Tools, is able […]
