As a means of modeling typical system behavior, we present a description technique for business processes derived from data flow nets and provide it with a formal semantics based ...
We present a new tableaux calculus deciding the ABox consistency problem for the expressive description logic ALCNHR+ . Prominent language features of ALCNHR+ are number restricti...
This paper investigates optimization techniques and data structures exploiting the use of so-called pseudo models. These techniques are applied to speed-up TBox and ABox reasoning...
This paper discusses the use of computational linguistic technology to extract definitions from a large corpus of German court decisions. We present a corpus-based survey of defin...
Abstract. We describe a simple, conceptual forward analysis procedure for complete WSTS S. This computes the clover of a state s0, i.e., a finite description of the closure of the ...
