This article presents a general framework for integrating reasoning about object structure and concept taxonomies. The structural relations in the domain of objects discussed are ...
We develop a formal theory of mereology that includes relations that change over time. We show how this theory formalizes reasoning over domains of material objects, which include...
We establish that the decidability of the first order theory of a class of finite structures ¢ is a simple and useful condition for guaranteeing that the expressive power of FO...
Standard theories in mereotopology focus on relations of parthood and connection among spatial or spatio-temporal regions. Objects or processes which might be located in such regio...
In this work we focus on a formalisation of the algorithms of lazy exact arithmetic `a la Potts and Edalat [1]. We choose the constructive type theory as our formal verification t...
