The relational model has recently been extended to so-called K-relations in which tuples are assigned a unique value in a semiring K. A query language, denoted by RAC K , similar ...
In this paper, we introduce a new partial consistency for constraint networks which is called Structural Consistency of level w and is denoted w-SC consistency. This consistency i...
By a d-dimensional B-spline object (denoted as Od ), we mean a B-spline curve (d = 1), a B-spline surface (d = 2) or a B-spline volume (d = 3). By regularization of a B-spline obj...
Abstract. A classic result known as the speed-up theorem in machineindependent complexity theory shows that there exist some computable functions that do not have best programs for...
This paper introduces a simple notion of layering as a tool for analyzing well-behaved runs of a given model of distributed computation. Using layering, a model-independent analysi...
