Abstract. Applications in software verification often require determining the satisfiability of first-order formulæ with respect to some background theories. During development...
A calculus is presented for the stepwise refinement of abstract information flow architectures. We give a mathematical model for information flow components based on relations bet...
We propose a novel approach to service choreography through a typed process calculus that features an event notification paradigm for coordinating distributed components (e.g., se...
Abstract-- We consider a hybrid knowledge representation system for ontological knowledge bases in order to maintain knowledge consistency between taxonomic knowledge and assertion...
