Query graphs with cuts are inspired by Sowa’s conceptual graphs, which are in turn based on Peirce’s existential graphs. In my thesis ‘The Logic System of Concept Graphs with...
Among the formalisms for qualitative spatial reasoning, the Region Connection Calculus and its variant, the constraint algebra RCC8, have received particular attention recently. A...
The rCOS modeler implements the requirements modelling phase of a model driven component-based software engineering process. Components are specified in rCOS, a relational calculus...
We show that for several classes of idempotent semirings the least fixed-point of a polynomial system of equations X = f(X) is equal to the least fixed-point of a linear system obt...

In [Dague, 1993], a formal system ROM(K) involving four relations has been defined to reason with relative orders of magnitude. In this paper, problems of introducing quantitative...
