The Ambient Logic is a modal logic proposed to describe the structural and computational properties of distributed and mobile computations. The static part of the Ambient Logic is,...
Integrity checking is an essential means for the preservation of the intended semantics of a deductive database. Incrementality is the only feasible approach to checking and can be...
Answering queries posed over knowledge bases is a central problem in knowledge representation and database theory. In databases, query containment is one of the important query op...
nt an abstract instruction set for a constraint solver over finite domains, which can be smoothly integrated in the WAM architecture. It is based on the use of a single primitive...
Test scheduling is an important problem in system-on-a-chip (SOC) test automation. Efficient test schedules minimize the overall system test application time, avoid test resource c...
