This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...
It is known that the languages definable by formulae of the logics FO2[<,S], 2[<,S], LTL[F,P,X,Y] are exactly the variety DAD. Automata for this class are not known, nor is i...
This paper addresses the question of producing modular sequential imperative code from synchronous data-flow networks. Precisely, given a system with several input and output flow...
We rework parts of the classical relational theory when the underlying domain is a structure with some interpreted operations that can be used in queries. We identify parts of the...
A software framework for the parallel execution of sequential programs using C++ classes is presented. The functional language Concurrent ML is used to implement the underlying ha...
