The particular strength of CBR is normally considered to be its use in weak theory domains where solution quality is compiled into cases and is reusable. In this paper we explore a...
There have been several e orts to create and use real maps in computer applications that automatically nd good map routes. In general, online map representations do not include in...
Array updates in single assignment languages generally require some copying of the array, and thus tend to be more expensive than in imperative languages. As a result, programs in...
We stress the importance of requirements engineering (RE) for the development of large scale software in general and for GIS-applications in particular. RE analyses the problem do...
: Usually spatial planning problems involve a large number of decision makers with different backgrounds and interests. The process of Collaborative Spatial Decision Making (CSDM)...

Polygonal objects are characterized by the following well-known parameters: number of vertices, area, perimeter and so on. These parameters describe the data sets that are used in...

An algorithm is presented to answer window queries in a quadtree-based spatial database environment by retrieving the covering blocks in the underlying spatial database. It works ...
It is often possible to describe the correct functioning of a system by a mathematical model. As long as observations or measurements correspond to the predictions made by the mod...
The paper presents a method for uncertainty propagation in Bayesian networks in symbolic, as opposed to numeric, form. The algebraic structure of probabilities is characterized. Th...
We propose so called contraction free sequent calculi for the three prominent modal logics K, T, and S4. Deduction search in these calculi is shown to provide more efficient decisi...
