Abstract. This paper gives a reduction-preserving translation from Coquand's dependent pattern matching [4] into a traditional type theory [11] with universes, inductive types...
A serious defect with the Halpern-Pearl (HP) definition of causality is repaired by combining a theory of causality with a theory of defaults. In addition, it is shown that (despi...
In this paper we attempt to further demonstrate connections between information theory and control, in a networked setting. Specifically, we consider the communication problem of b...
Abstract. We propose a unifying framework for polyhedral approximation in convex optimization. It subsumes classical methods, such as cutting plane and simplicial decomposition, bu...
— Quality of Service (QoS) is an area with high academic curiosity. Our long-term goal is to develop a unified mathematical model. This paper is a first step towards this ambit...
