The use of smart cards to run software modules on demand has become a major business concern for application issuers. Such downloadable executable content requires to be trusted by...
We show that characteristic formulae for nite-state systems up to bisimulationlike equivalences (e.g., strong and weak bisimilarity) can be given in the simple branching-time temp...
Traditionally, computational complexity has considered only static problems. Classical Complexity Classes such as NC, P, and NP are de ned in terms of the complexity of checking {...
The traditional focus of relational query optimization schemes has been on the choice of join methods and join orders. Restrictions have typically been handled in query optimizers ...
Abstract. Static analyses calculate abstract states, and their logics validate properties of the abstract states. We place into perspective the variety of forwards, backwards, func...
