Decreasing diagrams technique (van Oostrom, 1994) is a technique that can be widely applied to prove confluence of rewrite systems. To directly apply the decreasing diagrams techn...
The Tyrolean Termination Tool (TTT for short) is a powerful tool for automatically proving termination of rewrite systems. It incorporates several new refinements of the dependen...
The chemical reaction metaphor describes computation in terms of a chemical solution in which molecules interact freely according to reaction rules. Chemical solutions are represen...
Query rewriting using views is an essential issue in data integration. A number of algorithms, e.g., the bucket algorithm, the inverse rules algorithm, the SVB algorithm and the M...
Many distributed applications can be understood in terms of components interacting in an open environment such as the Internet. Open environments are subject to change in unpredic...
