A Datalog program can be translated into a system of fixpoint equations of relational algebra; this paper studies how such a system can be solved and optimized for a particular qu...
Abstract: We introduce the input-output automaton, a simple but powerful model of computation in asynchronous distributed networks. With this model we are able to construct modular...
Balanced codes have the property that no codeword is "contained" in another.This property makes balanced codes attractive for certain applications, such as the encoding ...
The Boolean formula value problem is in alternating log time and, more generally, parenthesis context-free languages are in alternating log time. The evaluation of reverse Polish ...
The design of the POSTGRES data model is described. The data model is a relational model that has been extended with abstract data types including user-defined operators and proce...
