Semi-naive evaluation is an effective technique employed in bottom-up evaluation of logic programs to avoid redundant joins of answers. The impact of this technique on top-down e...
Abstract. We present a general method to prove security properties of cryptographic protocols against active adversaries, when the messages exchanged by the honest parties are arbi...
This paper develops a technique that uniquely combines the advantages of static scheduling and dynamic scheduling to reduce the energy consumed in modern superscalar processors wi...
The problem investigated in this paper is the distribution of goals addressed to a group of rational agents. Those agents are characterized by their ability (i.e. what they can do...
Formal theories of multi-agent systems require a rich ontology for modelling the dynamics of social behaviour. In this paper a formal analysis of the social behaviour of individua...
