Altogether this allows for automatic formal verification without providing finite bounds on the numbers of objects created during a run of the system. Our presentation is grounded on a specific formal interpretation of LSCs for the UML domain in terms of [7] which is rich enough to in particular express properties about objects which are created only during activation of the LSC. } } @COMMENT{Bibtex file generated on }
