Two-way alternating automata were introduced by Vardi in order to study the satisfiability problem for the modal µ-calculus extended with backwards modalities. In this paper, we ...
This paper constructs a logic of soft constraints where the set of degrees of preference forms a partially ordered set. When the partially ordered set is a distributive lattice, th...
We introduce a computational interpretation for Hilbert’s choice operator (ε). This interpretation yields a typed foundation for dynamic linking in software systems. The use of ...
We present a method of deriving Craig interpolants from proofs in the quantifier-free theory of linear inequality and uninterpreted function symbols, and an interpolating theorem...
We propose a new, logical, approach to the decidability problem for the Straubing and Brzozowski hierarchies based on the preservation theorems from model theory, on a theorem of ...
