We describe a method for characterizing the expressive power of description logics. The method is essentially model-theoretic in nature, and it is applied to obtain expressiveness...
Most information extraction (IE) systems identify facts that are explicitly stated in text. However, in natural language, some facts are implicit, and identifying them requires â€...
We give a denotational semantics to a type and effect system tracking reading and writing to global variables holding values that may include higher-order effectful functions. Reï...

Tracking subset relations between the contents containers on the heap is fundamental to modeling the semantics of many common programing idioms such as applying a function to a sub...

We give a denotational semantics to a region-based effect system tracking reading, writing and allocation in a higher-order language with dynamically allocated integer references....
