— Multi-criteria decision support (MCDS) is crucial in many business and web applications such as web searches, B2B portals and on-line commerce. Such MCDS applications need to r...
Most recommendation methods (e.g., collaborative filtering) consist of (1) a computationally intense offline phase that computes a recommender model based on users’ opinions o...

In this work, we develop a partial evaluation technique for residuating functional logic programs, which generalize the concurrent computation models for logic programs with delays...
Various index structures have been proposed to speed up the evaluation of XML path expressions. However, existing XML path indices suffer from at least one of three limitations: ...

A logic program strongly quasi-terminates when only a finite number of distinct atoms (modulo variable renaming) are derivable from any given query and computation rule. This noti...
