The typical workload in a database system consists of a mixture of multiple queries of different types, running concurrently and interacting with each other. Hence, optimizing perf...
— Synthesis of robot behaviors towards nontrivial goals often requires reasoning about both discrete and continuous aspects of the underlying domain. Existing approaches in build...
We present a powerful new account of multi-agent knowledge in the situation calculus and an effective reasoning procedure for handling knowledge queries. Our approach generalizes...
Object-oriented case representations require approaches for similarity assessment that allow to compare two differently structured objects, in particular, objects belonging to diff...
Context-aware applications monitor changes in their operating environment and switch their behaviour to keep satisfying their requirements. Therefore, they must be equipped with th...
