We study properties of programs with monotone and convex constraints. We extend to these formalisms concepts and results from normal logic programming. They include the notions of...
The fundamental problem for inference control in data cubes is how to efficiently calculate the lower and upper bounds for each cell value given the aggregations of cell values ove...

Abstract In this paper we address the problem of aggregating outranking statements from multiple preference criteria of ordinal significance. The concept of ordinal concordance of ...
Time synchronization is essential for several ad-hoc network protocols and applications, such as TDMA scheduling and data aggregation. In this paper, we propose a time synchronizat...
