The point algebra is a fundamental formal calculus for spatial and temporal reasoning. We present a new generalization that meets all requirements to describe dependencies on netw...
The Region-Connection Calculus (RCC) is a well established formal system for qualitative spatial reasoning. It provides an axiomatization of space which takes regions as primitive...
In [Dague, 1993], a formal system ROM(K) involving four relations has been defined to reason with relative orders of magnitude. In this paper, problems of introducing quantitative...
Since Val Tannen's pioneering work on the combination of simply-typed λ-calculus and rst-order rewriting [11], many authors have contributed to this subject by extending it ...
We investigate a higher-order query language that embeds operators of the positive relational algebra within the simply-typed λ-calculus. Our language allows one to succinctly de...
