Pattern analysis consists in determining the shape of the set of solutions of the constraint store at some program points. Our basic claim is that pattern analyses can all be desc...
We consider the problem of rewriting a query efficiently using materialized views. In the context of information integration, this problem has received significant attention in th...
High-level robot controllers in realistic domains typically deal with processes which operate concurrently, change the world continuously, and where the execution of actions is ev...
Many interesting analyses for constraint logic-based languages are aimed at the detection of monotonic properties, that is to say, properties that are preserved as the computation...
Abstract. In this paper a semantic approach for the specification and the management of databases with evolving schemata is introduced. It is shown how a general object-oriented m...
