We prove an exponential lower bound for the length of any resolution proof for the same set of clauses as the one used by Urquhart [13]. Our contribution is a significant simpli...
Many current general purpose processors use extensions to the instruction set architecture to enhance the performance of digital image processing and multimedia applications. In t...

The Region-Connection Calculus (RCC) is a well established formal system for qualitative spatial reasoning. It provides an axiomatization of space which takes regions as primitive...
Getting the right software requirements under the right environment assumptions is a critical precondition for developing the right software. This task is intrinsically difficult....
