In this paper, we demonstrate that the main standard optimization techniques dependency directed backtracking and model merging can be adapted to description logics with concrete ...
Table partitioning splits a table into smaller parts that can be accessed, stored, and maintained independent of one another. From their traditional use in improving query perform...
Fault trees provide a graphical and logical framework for analyzing the reliability of systems. A fault tree provides a conceptually simple modeling framework to represent the sys...
