We present a novel approach which facilitates formal verification of component-based software application families using model checking. This approach enables effective composition...
A key argument for modeling knowledge in ontologies is the easy re-use and re-engineering of the knowledge. However, beside consistency checking, current ontology engineering tools...
Static analysis is a tremendous help when trying to find faults in complex software. Writing multi-threaded programs is difficult, because the thread scheduling increases the prog...
Abstract: Functions that map boolean vectors into the integers are important for the design and verication of arithmetic circuits. MTBDDs and BMDs have been proposed for represent...
Direction relations between extended spatial objects are important commonsense knowledge. Recently, Goyal and Egenhofer proposed a formal model, called Cardinal Direction Calculus...
