This work examines algebraic techniques for comparing quadratic algebraic numbers, thus yielding methods for deciding key predicates in various geometric constructions. Our motiva...
for reasoning about abstract models of protocols. The work on informal methods attempts to discern common patterns in the extensive record of flawed protocols, and to formulate po...
: We present a method to compute the exact topology of a real algebraic surface S, implicitly given by a polynomial f Q[x,y,z] of arbitrary total degree N. Additionally, our analy...
Performance evaluation is a central issue in the design of complex real-time systems. In this work, we propose an extension of socalled "Max-Plus" algebraic techniques to...
Using standard calculus, explicit formulas for the one-dimensional continuous and discrete homotopy operators are derived. It is shown that these formulas are equivalent to those ...
