This paper analyzes a language for actions and the deontic modalities over actions -- i.e., the modalities permitted, forbidden and obligatory. The work is based on: (1) an action...
Abstract-- We present the short-circuit code transformation technique, intended for embedded compilers. The transformation technique optimizes conditional blocks in high-level prog...
Boundary overflows are caused by violation of constraints, mostly limiting the range of internal values of a program, and can be provoked by an intruder to gain control of or acce...
We extend a previous type system for the -calculus that guarantees deadlock-freedom. The previous type systems for deadlockfreedom either lacked a reasonable type inference algorit...
We describe a reinforcement learning system that transfers skills from a previously learned source task to a related target task. The system uses inductive logic programming to ana...
