Some search problems are most directly specified by boolean combinations of pseudo-boolean constraints. We study a logic PL(PB) whose formulas are of this form, and design local-s...
The classic method of Nelson and Oppen for combining decision procedures requires the theories to be stably-infinite. Unfortunately, some important theories do not fall into this...
In abstract algebra, a structure is said to be Noetherian if it does not admit infinite strictly ascending chains of congruences. In this paper, we adapt this notion to first-ord...
Concurrent ML is an extension of Standard ML with π-calculus-like primitives for multi-threaded programming. CML has a reduction semantics, but to date there has been no labelled...
Abstract. We address the general problem of determining the validity of boolean combinations of equalities and inequalities between real-valued expressions. In particular, we consi...
