Abstract. The current state of the art regarding scalable reasoning consists of programs that run on a single machine. When the amount of data is too large, or the logic is too com...
Background: There are many data mining methods but few comparisons between them. For example, there are at least two ways to build quality optimizers, programs that find project o...
Commitment-modeled protocols enable flexible and robust interactions among agents. However, existing work has focused on features and capabilities of protocols without considerin...
Model-based program debugging exploits discrepancies between the program behavior anticipated by a programmer and the program’s actual behavior when executed on a set of inputs....
“demonic” nondeterminism, representing abstraction from (or ignorance of) which of two program fragments will be executed. By introducing probabilistic nondeterminism into GCL,...
