The development of programming skills is a motivating issue in computer science. Programming languages have been increasingly used to map end-users needs and mental models. The nu...
Satisfiability of complex word-level formulas often arises as a problem in formal verification of hardware designs described at the register transfer level (RTL). Even though most...
We study the problem of transforming a multichromosomal genome into another using Double-Cut-and-Join (DCJ) operations. We introduce the notion of DCJ scenario that does not break ...
