— We consider a queueing system with controllable service rate; for example, a transmitter whose rate can be controlled by varying the transmission power. For such a system we ob...
Abstract. Object calculi have been investigated as semantical foundation for object-oriented languages. Often, they are object-based, whereas the mainstream of object-oriented lang...
— We consider a distributed system modeled as a possibly large network of automata. Planning in this system consists in selecting and organizing actions in order to reach a goal ...
Network programming is notoriously hard to understand: one has to deal with a variety of protocols (IP, ICMP, UDP, TCP etc), concurrency, packet loss, host failure, timeouts, the c...
This paper is concerned with the complexity of proofs and of searching for proofs in two propositional proof systems: Resolution and Polynomial Calculus (PC). For the former syste...
