Dynamically Checking Ownership Policies in Concurrent C/C++ Programs
Concurrent programming errors arise when threads share data incorrectly. Programmers often avoid these errors by using synchronization to enforce a simple ownership policy: data i...

A Configurable Rete-OO Engine for Reasoning with Different Types of Imperfect Information
The RETE algorithm is a very efficient option for the development of a rule-based system, but it supports only boolean, first order logic. Many real-world contexts, instead, requir...
