A Kripke Semantics is defined for a higher-order logic programming language with constraints, based on Church’s Theory of Types and a generic constraint formalism. Our syntactic...
We explore the implications of supporting bags (i.e. multisets) in a data model and associated query language, and present some formal results concerned with the algebraic propert...
We analyse how inheritance of synchronization constraints should be supported. The conclusion of our analysis is that inheritance of synchronization constraints should take the for...
We develop a model for timed, reactive computation by extending the asynchronous, untimed concurrent constraint programming model in a simple and uniform way. In the spirit of pro...
d Abstract) We extend the model of [VRV94] to express strong time-outs (and pre-emption): if an event A does not happen through time t, cause event B to happen at time t. Such con...
