We present a general theory for the use of negative premises in the rules of Transition System Specifications (TSSs). We formulate a criterion that should be satisfied by a TSS in ...
Strategies are a powerful mechanism to control rule application in rule-based systems. For instance, different transition relations can be defined and then combined by means of ...
We present a prototype implementation of SOS meta-theory in the Maude term rewriting language. The prototype defines the basic concepts of SOS meta-theory (e.g., transition formul...
Scenario-based specifications such as Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) are popular for requirement elicitation and specification. MSCs describe two distinct aspects of a system: on ...
We investigate natural systems of fundamental sequences for ordinals below the Howard Bachmann ordinal and study growth rates of the resulting slow growing hierarchies. We consider...
