… would be to make the trigger mandatory, ie, we place the trigger line at the very top (as in
TMSC M2) so that I1 and I2 satisfy M1 by actually exchanging the messages a and b as shown. …

… in a TMSC, however, P is a state predicate rather than a sequence of … Sequence Charts
(LSCs) [7] include activation conditions and precharts, which are similar to our notion of triggers; …

Triggered message sequence charts (TMSCs) are a visual, mathematically precise notation
for capturing system requirements as conditional and partial scenarios. We show how …

… Message Sequence Charts (MSC)s have been widely accepted as a formal scenario-based …
In this paper, we discuss a method for checking if a TMSC (Triggered Message Sequence …

Triggered Message Sequence Charts (TMSCs) are a scenario-based visual formalism for
early stage requirements specifications of distributed systems. In this paper, we present a …

… In this article we present our modeling notation of symbolic message sequence charts (SMSCs),
which is a light-weight extension of the MSC notation, well suited for requirements …

Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) are a widely used visual formalism for scenario-based
specifications of distributed reactive systems. In its conventional usage, an MSC captures an …

… Here, we have decided to define instantaneous steps triggered by timeouts. Such steps
can be also specified using two timers set with the same time value. Another possibility is to …

… always requires a triggering event to start, a triggering event message arrow always needs
… level by means of a HMSC, the triggering event message arrow is placed in the basic MSC …

… For example, they can be used to control the flow of the run, by exploiting the fact that our
semantics causes a false cold condition to trigger an exit from the current (sub)chart. For …
