We describe a new invariant-based data model for image databases under our approach for shape-based retrieval. The data model relies on contours description of the image shape, an...
We are investigating an integrated design method for a device driver and a device in order to efficiently develop device drivers used in embedded systems. This paper evaluates wh...
We introduce a dynamic logic that is enriched by non-rigid functions, i.e., functions that may change their value from state to state (during program execution), and we present a (...
