Semantic query optimization (SQO) has been proved to be quite useful in various applications (e.g., data integration, graphical query generators, caching, etc.) and has been extens...
The independent choice logic (ICL) is part of a project to combine logic and decision/game theory into a coherent framework. The ICL has a simple possible-worlds semantics charact...
We give new proofs of soundness (all representable functions on base types lies in certain complexity classes) for Light Affine Logic, Elementary Affine Logic, LFPL and Soft Af...
We describe a new invariant-based data model for image databases under our approach for shape-based retrieval. The data model relies on contours description of the image shape, an...
Constraint automata have been introduced to provide a compositional, operational semantics for the exogenous coordination language Reo, but they can also serve interface specifica...
