Partial Order Reduction for Probabilistic Systems: A Revision for Distributed Schedulers
Abstract. The technique of partial order reduction (POR) for probabilistic model checking prunes the state space of the model so that a maximizing scheduler and a minimizing one pe...

Contracting preference relations for database applications
The binary relation framework has been shown to be applicable to many real-life preference handling scenarios. Here we study preference contraction: the problem of discarding sele...
