We investigate the complexity of preorder checking when the specification is a flat finite-state system whereas the implementation is either a non-flat finite-state system or a st...
In this survey, we outline basic SAT- and ATPGprocedures as well as their applications in formal hardware verification. We attempt to give the reader a trace trough literature and...
Storage systems such as file systems, databases, and RAID systems have a simple, basic contract: you give them data, they do not lose or corrupt it. Often they store the only copy...
Abstract. We describe a simple CSP formalism for handling multi-attribute preference problems with hard constraints, one that combines hard constraints and preferences so the two a...

We present dcl-pc: a dynamic logic of delegation and cooperation. The logical foundation of dcl-pc is cl-pc, a logic for reasoning about cooperation in which the powers of agents ...
