Abstract. Finite model search for first-order logic theories is complementary to theorem proving. Systems like Falcon, SEM and FMSET use the known LNH (Least Number Heuristic) heur...
We perform a theoretical study of the following queryview security problem: given a view V to be published, does V logically disclose information about a confidential query S? The...
The pebble tree automaton and the pebble tree transducer are enhanced by additionally allowing an unbounded number of `invisible' pebbles (as opposed to the usual `visible...

We study complexity and approximation of queries in an expressive query language for probabilistic databases. The language studied supports the compositional use of confidence com...
Conducting controlled experiments about programming activities often requires the use of multiple tasks of similar difficulty. In previously reported work about a controlled exper...
