Abstract. We show that the Semantic Web needs a formal semantics for the various kinds of links between ontologies and other documents. We provide a model theoretic semantics that ...
Constraint programming provides a declarative approach to solving combinatorial (optimization) problems. The user just states the problem as a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP)...
We discuss the use of convolutional codes to perform concurrent error detection (CED) in finite state machines (FSMs). We examine a previously proposed methodology, we identify i...
In bitemporal databases, current facts and transaction states are modelled using a special value to represent the current time (such as a minimum or maximum timestamp or NULL). Pr...
Multi-valued model-checking is an extension of classical model-checking to reasoning about systems with uncertain information, which are common during early design stages. The addi...
