A Rule-Based Language and Verification Framework of Dynamic Service Composition

open access: yesFuture Internet, 2020
The emergence of BPML (Business Process Modeling Language) has favored the development of languages for the composition of services. Process-oriented approaches produce imperative languages, which are rigid to change at run-time because they focus on how

Transforming UML 'Collaborating' Statecharts for Verification and Simulation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, 2003
Due to the increasing complexity of real world problems, it is costly and difficult to validate today's software-intensive systems. The research reported in the paper describes our experiences in developing and applying a set of methodologies for ...

Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Cellular Toxicity of Short‐ and Long‐Term Exposures to Polystyrene Nanoplastics and Microplastics in Fish Skin Cell Derived From Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas)

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ubiquitous presence of microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) is raising concerns about their impact on the health of humans and other living organisms. Due to its tiny size, this particle can accumulate and circulate in the body after uptake, resulting in a variety of harmful outcomes on the organism, such as increased oxidative stress and

Discrete-time Promela and Spin

open access: yes, 1998
Spin is a software package for the verification of concurrent systems. A system to be verified is modeled in Promela — Spin’s input language. We present an extension of Promela and Spin with discrete time that provides an opportunity to model systems ...

An Exact Schedulability Test for Real-Time Systems with Abstract Scheduler on Multiprocessor Platforms

open access: yesМоделирование и анализ информационных систем
This paper uses the model checking method for an exact schedulability test of real-time systems running on multiprocessor platforms. To use this method, we formally describe real-time systems with an abstract scheduler as Kripke models.

Short‐Term 6PPD‐Q Exposure alters Tight‐Junction‐Related Gene Expression Without Acute Lethality in Japanese Medaka Oryzias latipes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT 6PPD‐quinone (6PPD‐Q), a transformation product of the tire antioxidant 6PPD, causes acute mortality in several salmonid species, but its toxicity varies markedly among fish species. Disruption of vascular‐barrier integrity and inflammatory signaling has been proposed as a key mechanism of 6PPD‐Q toxicity.

Environmentally Realistic Metal Mixture Concentration Impacts Early Development in Zebrafish Larvae

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dispersion of metals in the environment leads to the presence of metal mixtures in impacted ecosystems, but few studies have addressed their impact on early developmental processes in fish. Here, we investigated the effect of metal mixtures reported in the Doce River basin in Brazil, including Fe, Mn, and Cd, either singly or as a mixture ...

From Consumer Plastics to Aquatic Toxicants: Oxidative and Endocrine Effects of Microplastics on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) Larvae

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.
