We propose a new probabilistic approach to information retrieval based upon the ideas and methods of statistical machine translation. The central ingredient in this approach is a ...
Conditional logics play an important role in recent attempts to investigate default reasoning. This paper investigates firstorder conditional logic. We show that, as for first-ord...
For many object-oriented systems, it is often useful to have a runtime architecture that shows networks of communicating objects. But it is hard to statically extract runtime obje...
Aspect-oriented programming languages select join points using pointcut constructs that depend on the syntactic structure of the base program. As the base program evolves, the poi...
While there has been much work on developing frameworks and models of norms and normative systems, consideration of the impact of norms on the practical reasoning of agents has at...
