Abstract Existing solutions to the automated physical design problem in database systems attempt to minimize execution costs of input workloads for a given storage constraint. In t...
Amtoft has formulated an "on-line" constraint normalization method for solving a strictness inference problem inspired by Wright. From the syntactic form of the normaliz...
Incorporating constraints into a reactive BDI agent programming language can lead to better expressive capabilities as well as more efficient computation (in some instances). More...
The extended answer set semantics for logic programs allows for the defeat of rules to resolve contradictions. We propose a refinement of these semantics based on a preference rel...

This paper aims at introducing an extension of M-nets, a fully compositional class of high-level Petri nets, and of its low-level counter part, Petri Boxes Calculus (PBC). We intro...
