Many optimization problems can be expressed us ing some form of soft constraints, where different measures of desirability arc associated with differ ent combinations of domai...

use for constraint solving, abstract interpretation, spatial databases, and theorem proving. In this paper we develop new incremental algorithms for UTVPI constraint satisfaction a...
In this paper we present a method formodeling asynchronous digital circuits by timed automata. The constructed timed automata serve as \mechanical" and veri able objects for a...
Discrete-event (DE) models are formal system specifications that have analyzable deterministic behaviors. Using a global, consistent notion of time, DE components communicate via...
Certainly, in hard real-time systems, it is reasonable to argue that no hard real-time threads should behave in an unpredictable way and that schedulability should be guaranteed b...
