In this paper we describe our approach to reconstructing the software architecture of J2EE web applications. We use the Siemens Four Views approach, separating the architecture in...
We introduce a new normal form, called essential tuple normal form (ETNF), for relations in a relational database where the constraints are given by functional dependencies and jo...
Answering queries posed over knowledge bases is a central problem in knowledge representation and database theory. In databases, query containment is one of the important query op...
Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) solvers have proven highly scalable, efficient and suitable for integrated theory reasoning. The most efficient SMT solvers rely on refutationa...
Logic decomposition has been extensively used to optimize the worst-case delay and the area in the technology independent phase. Bi-decomposition is one of the state-of-art techni...
