This paper proposes and validates a theory of physician resistance toward IT usage by drawing on prior research in the resistance to change literature and a recent dual-factor mod...
We compare the expressive power on finite models of two extensions of first order logic L with equality. L(Ct) is formed by adding an operator count{x : ϕ}, which builds a term ...
Given a set P of n points in the plane, we wish to find a set Q P of k points for which the convex hull conv(Q) has the minimum area. We solve this, and the related problem of fi...
The refinement calculus of Back, Morgan, Morris, and others is based on monotone predicate transformers (weakest preconditions) where conjunctions stand for demonic choices betwee...
In this paper we bring together the areas of combinatorics and propositional satisfiability. Many combinatorial theorems establish, often constructively, the existence of positive...
