Naive parallel implementation of nondeterministic systems (such as a theorem proving system) and languages (such as a logic, constraint, or a concurrent constraint language)can re...
In defining large, complex access control policies, one would like to compose sub-policies, perhaps authored by different organizations, into a single global policy. Existing po...
In this paper, we describe the theoretical framework that allows us to use of the expert system shell CLIPS to define the network model in the Distribution Management System (DMS)...
We propose a family of models of coordination of distributed object systems representing different views, with refinement relations between the different views. We start with dist...
Useful type inference must be faster than normalization. Otherwise, you could check safety conditions by running the program. We analyze the relationship between bounds on normali...
