ko et al. have recently proposed an abstract framework for default reasoning. Besides capturing most existing formalisms and proving that their standard semantics all coincide, th...
We consider two basic computational problems regarding discrete probability distributions: (1) approximating the statistical difference (aka variation distance) between two given d...
Abstract. This paper has as main goal to develop a hybrid expert system to minimize some of the complexity problems related to arti cial intelligence eld. For instance, we can ment...

Although it is acknowledged that multi-way dataflow constraints are useful in interactive applications, concerns about their tractability have hindered their acceptance. Certain l...
It is widely recognized that real-time,fault-tolerant and distributed computing technologies play a key role in the deployment of many current andfuture (civilian or Defense) crit...
