We define a new operation in description logics, the difference operation or subtraction operation. This operation allows to remove from a description as much as possible of the i...
This paper makes three observations with regard to the application of algorithms such as wsat and relsat to problems of practical interest. First, we identify a specific calculati...
This paper argues for new computational mechanisms to aid specification of requirements for composite systems. It presents mechanisms for storing specification fragments, or viewp...

This paper gives an overview of two methods for automatically or semi-automatically generating deduction calculi from the semantic specification of a logic. One approach is based ...
This paper proposes a formal framework and architecture for specification and analysis of interactive agents. The framework can be used to explore the design space, study features...
