Types play an important role both in reasoning about Haskell and for its implementation. For example, the Glasgow Haskell Compiler performs certain fusion transformations that are...
In this paper we consider the problem of searching for a node or an object (i.e., piece of data, file, etc.) in a large network. Applications of this problem include searching fo...
We study the representation, derivation and utilization of a special kind of constraints in multidatabase systems. A major challenge is when component database schemas are schemat...
Class hierarchies in object-oriented programs are used to capture various attributes of the underlying objects they represent, allowing programmers to encapsulate common attribute...
Abstract--We propose an approach to accurately detecting twodimensional (2-D) shapes. The cross section of the shape boundary is modeled as a step function. We first derive a one-d...
