-===== Course Objectives ===== 
- 
-<WRAP box round 95% center> 
-D1 – KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING\\ 
-At the end of the course, the student should be able to:\\ 
-  - Have the knowledge of the issues concerning concurrent/​distributed programming and the modelling of hardware/​software systems as software-intensive systems. 
-  - Have the knowledge of the semantics of the operators of the process algebras CCS, CSP and ACP. 
-  - Have the knowledge of the syntax and the semantics of the modal logic Hennessy-Milner Logic (HML), with and without recursion, and of the ACTL logic. 
-  - Have the knowledge of the main observational behavioural equivalences,​ weak and strong. 
-  - Have the knowledge of the tools for the automatic verification of software-intensive systems modelled by means of process algebras. ​ 
- 
-D2 – APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING\\ 
-At the end of the course, the student should be able to:\\ 
-  - Modelling a software-intensive system using the formal languages presented in the course, using a compositional approach. 
-  - Derive the labelled transition system associated to a process. 
-  - Decide if one or more state of a labelled transition system are stong or weak bisimilar, providing a suitable bisimulation relation whereas possible. 
-  - Decide if one or more states of a labelled transition system satisfy formulas of HML and ACTL logics. 
-  - Define temporal properties of a software-intensive system using the HML and ACTL logics. 
-  - Use a specific software tool for the analysis of software-intensive systems modelled using the CCS language or other formalism. 
- 
-D3 – MAKING JUDGEMENTS\\ 
-At the end of the course, the student should be able to:\\ 
-  - Identify the best model suitable for describing a system using a given formalism. 
- 
-D4 - COMMUNICATION SKILLS\\ 
-At the end of the course, the student should be able to:\\ 
-  - Write a clear report on the modelling and analysis of a system under study using a formal style. ​ 
-  - Write a brief survey and state of the art about a given research topic by searching the scientific literature. ​ 
- 
-D5 – LEARNING SKILLS\\ 
-At the end of the course, the student should be able to:\\ 
-  - Search the scientific literature for specific advances in formalisms and tools aimed at modelling and verifying software-intensive systems. 
-  - Autonomously understand and learn to use new features added to tools for modelling and verifying software-intensive systems.

-**Exam rules**: 
-  * **Written test**. On the exam date a written test takes place, it has a mixed structure: solution of exercises, and open/close answer questionnaire. During the course in itinere tests take place; in case they are evaluated positively, they replace the written test of the exam date. 
-  * Realisation of a **project** with a software tool presented during the course, or writing of a report. There is an **oral discussion**. ​
