- This paper presents a novel calculus to reason about dynamically evolving architectures. The calculus resulted in an extension for the FACTum tool presented at two conferences, resulting in publications in corresponding proceedings (https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-89363-1_9, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-02146-7_14). The calculus was also used to verify the correctness of the proof-of-work protocol used in many modern Blockchain systems. The resulting paper (https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-21759-4_12) was one of the first to present a mechanized correctness proof for the proof-of-work protocol. Finally, the calculus presented in the paper also inspired the development of dynamic models for the automotive industry (https://10.1109/ICSA47634.2020.00026).
