Objective: The objective of this paper is to demonstrate how a formal spatial theory can be used as an important tool for disambiguating the spatial information embodied in biomed...
Quantifier reasoning in Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) is a long-standing challenge. The practical method employed in modern SMT solvers is to instantiate quantified formulas...
It is a well-known fact that some form of factoring is necessary for completeness of paramodulation-based calculi of general first-order clauses. In this paper we give an overview...
In this paper we study the idea of theories with containers, like sets, pairs, sequences. We provide a modest framework to study such theories. We prove two concrete results. Firs...
Abstract. Abstraction is essential in the formal specification of programs. A common way of writing abstract specifications is to specify implementations in terms of basic mathem...
