Abstract. We introduce an approach to designing filtering algorithms by derivation from finite automata operating on constraint signatures. We illustrate this approach in two cas...
Abstract. This article deals with global constraints for which the set of solutions can be recognized by an extended finite automaton whose size is bounded by a polynomial in n, w...
We present a novel approach for filtering XML documents using nondeterministic finite automata and distributed hash tables. Our approach differs architecturally from recent propos...
In this paper we describe an approach to constraint based syntactic theories in terms of finite tree automata. The solutions to constraints expressed in weak monadic second order ...
Abstract Decision procedures underlie many program analysis problems. Traditional program analysis algorithms attempt to prove some property about a single, statically-defined prog...
