Discrete-Event Coordination Design for Distributed Agents
— This paper presents new results on the formal design of distributed coordinating agents in a discrete-event framework. In this framework, agents are modeled to be individually ...

A family of languages for architecture constraint specification
During software development, architecture decisions should be documented so that quality attributes guaranteed by these decisions and required in the software specification could ...

Verification of qualitative Z constraints
We introduce an LTL-like logic with atomic formulae built over a constraint language interpreting variables in Z. The constraint language includes periodicity constraints, comparis...

A Uniform Approach to Underspecification and Parallelism
We propose a unified framework in which to treat semantic underspecification and parallelism phenomena in discourse. The framework employs a constraint language that can express e...

Constraints over Lambda-Structures in Semantic Underspecification
We introduce a first-order language for semantic underspecification that we call Constraint Language for Lambda-Structures (CLLS). A Astructure can be considered as a A-term up to...

Well-Nested Parallelism Constraints for Ellipsis Resolution
The Constraint Language for Lambda Structures (CLLS) is an expressive tree description language. It provides a uniform framework for underspecified semantics, covering scope, ell...

The Complexity of Equality Constraint Languages
We classify the computational complexity of all constraint satisfaction problems where the constraint language is preserved by all permutations of the domain. A constraint languag...

On Tractability and Congruence Distributivity
Constraint languages that arise from finite algebras have recently been the object of study, especially in connection with the Dichotomy Conjecture of Feder and Vardi. An importa...

Universal Algebra and Hardness Results for Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We present algebraic conditions on constraint languages Γ that ensure the hardness of the constraint satisfaction problem CSP(Γ) for complexity classes L, NL, P, NP and ModpL. Th...
