A new algorithm for solving MAX-SAT problems is introduced which clusters good solutions, and restarts the search from the closest feasible solution to the centroid of each cluster...
Abstract. We consider the problem of checking equivalence of conjunctive queries with inequalities under bag (multiset) semantics. The problem is known to be decidable in pspace an...
In this work we consider the problem of approximating the number of relevant variables in a function given query access to the function. Since obtaining a multiplicative factor ap...
This paper presents a MOF-compliant metamodel for calculating software metrics and demonstrates how it is used to generate a metrics tool that calculates coupling and cohesion met...
We develop a framework for analyzing security protocols in which protocol adversaries may be arbitrary probabilistic polynomial-time processes. In this framework, protocols are wr...
