Refinement semantics is an alternative to least fixpoint semantics that is more useful for programming. From it we derive a variety of rules for w h i l e-loops, for-loops, and loo...
—Increasingly, tools and their underlying theories are able to cope with “real code” written as part of industrial grade applications almost as is. It has been our experience...
We extend to disjunctive logic programs our previous work on computing loop formulas of loops with at most one external support. We show that for these logic programs, loop formula...
Model refinement is a complex task. It is difficult for developers to refine models all by themselves. A good modeling tool should not only do routine refinement work for develope...
Abstract. The goal of ontology-based management is to improve the manageability of network resources through the application of formal ontologies. Prior research work has studied t...
