30+ years of modelling Computer Systems: What did I learn?
Abstract
I published my first paper on modelling telecoms protocols in 1989. Since then, the applications and techniques I have considered have changed over time, and so have I. Using six example applications, from 1989 to 2022, I reflect on how my research in theory, models, and tools for communicating systems has evolved, on what I have learned, and some challenges and issues we might think about in the future.
