Many numerical algorithms are specified in terms of operations on vectors and matrices. Matrix operations can be executed extremely efficiently using specialized linear algebra k...
Semantic web applications based on the web ontology language (OWL) often require the use of numbers in class descriptions for expressing cardinality restrictions on properties or ...
View merging, also called view integration, is a key problem in conceptual modeling. Large models are often constructed and accessed by manipulating individual views, but it is im...
