Model-based diagnosis of technical systems requires both a simulation machinery and a logic calculus. The former is responsible for the system's behavior analysis, the latter...
We address the problem of reasoning with instances of heterogeneously formalized ontologies. Given a set of semantic mappings, reconciling conceptual and instance level heterogenei...
We develop a formal framework for comparing different versions of ontologies, and apply it to ontologies formulated in terms of DL-Lite, a family of `lightweight' description...

Saul Kripke's thesis that ordinary proper names are rigid designators is supported by widely shared intuitions about the occurrence of names in ordinary modal contexts. By th...
New application-focused system-on-chip platforms motivate new application-specific processors. Configurable and extensible processor architectures offer the efficiency of tuned lo...
