Default reasoning has become an important topic in software engineering. In particular, defaults can be used to revise speci cations, to enhance reusability of existing systems, an...
Many software security vulnerabilities only reveal themselves under certain conditions, i.e., particular configurations of the software together with its particular runtime environ...
In this paper we present a mechanism for translating constraint queries, i.e., Boolean expressions of constraints, across heterogeneous information sources. Integrating such syste...
Abstract. An abstract framework is developed to describe program transformation by specializing a given program to a restricted set of inputs. Particular cases include partial eval...
: Some of the shortcomings of using refinement alone as the means of passing from high level simple models to actual detailed implementations are reviewed. Retrenchment is presente...
