Motivated by issues in designing practical total functional programming languages, we are interested in structured recursive equations that uniquely describe a function not because...
This paper studies argumentation-based dialogues between agents. It takes a previously defined system by which agents can trade arguments and examines the outcomes of the dialogu...
Boolean expression simplification is a well-known problem in the history of Computer Science. The problem of determining prime implicates from an arbitrary Boolean expression has...
We are advocating a component-oriented software development approach that provides support for a clear separation between the computational and the compositional entities of an ap...
The black-box reuse of library classes in the construction of an object-oriented (OO) application is dicult: the principle of information hiding may be violated if classes must kn...
