Abstract. The notion of graph polynomials definable in Monadic Second Order Logic, MSOL, was introduced in [Mak04]. It was shown that the Tutte polynomial and its generalization, a...
not use pointer arithmetic. Such "pure pointer algorithms" thus are a useful abstraction for studying the nature of logspace-computation. In this paper we introduce a for...
Type-based termination is a semantically intuitive method that ensures termination of recursive definitions by tracking the size of datatype elements, and by checking that recursiv...
This paper presents a novel strategy improvement algorithm for parity and payoff games, which is guaranteed to select, in each improvement step, an optimal combination of local str...
The security policy of an information system may include a wide range of different requirements. The literature has primarily focused on access and information flow control require...
