Irreversible computation necessarily results in energy dissipation due to information loss. While small in comparison to the power consumption of today’s VLSI circuits, if curre...
For the last ten years, a significant amount of work in the constraint community has been devoted to the improvement of complete methods for solving soft constraints networks. We ...

Abstract. The key to the integration of formal methods into engineering practice is education. In teaching, domain-independent problems -i.e., not requiring prior engineering backg...
An object diagram makes explicit the object structures that are only implicit in a class diagram. An object diagram may be missing and must extracted from the code. Alternatively,...
This paper describes a type system that is capable of expressing and enforcing immutability constraints. The speonstraint expressed is that the abstract state of the object to whi...
