: Context is the challenge for the coming years in Artificial Intelligence. In the companion paper [8], we present the main results of discussions at two workshops and at the first...
Aiming at the efficient retrieval of objects with set-valued attributes, we introduce three variations of a new method in order to satisfy subset and superset queries. Our approac...
Previous research in real-time concurrency control mainly focuses on the schedulability guarantee of hard real-time transactions and the reducing of the miss rate of soft real-tim...

In this paper, we explore the possibility of transforming queries with minimum and maximum predicates into equivalent queries that can be computed more efficiently. The main contr...
The objective of expert systems is the use of Artificial Intelligence tools so as to solve problems within specific prefixed applications. Even when such systems are widely applied...
Logic programming with the stable model semantics is put forward as a novel constraint programming paradigm. This paradigm is interesting because it bring advantages of logic prog...
