Abstract. We provide a framework for distributed systems that impose timing constraints on their executions. We propose a timed model of communicating finite-state machines, which...
aa We consider the problem of obtaining a minimal logic program strongly equivalent (under the stable models semantics) to a given arbitrary propositional theory. We propose a meth...
This paper formalizes three kinds of safety to be satisfied by networked appliances and services in the emerging home network system (HNS). The local safety is defined by safety ...

Despite the acceptance of FIPA-ACL as a standard for agent communications, there exist a gap between its specification and infrastructures to support interactions among agents. The...
llc is a language based on C where parallelism is expressed using compiler directives. The llc compiler produces MPI code which can be ported to both shared and distributed memory ...
