Abstract. We examine the problem of detecting nested temporal predicates given the execution trace of a distributed program. We present a technique that allows efficient detection ...
The Inscape Environment research project addresses issues in supporting the development of large systems by large numbers of programmers. One aspect of this research is the ‘‘...
Game developers are faced with the difficult task of creating non-player characters with convincing behavior. This commonly involves an exhaustive specification of their actions i...
Many systems that exhibit nonmonotonic behavior have been described and studied already in the literature. The general notion of nonmonotonic reasoning, though, has almost always ...
Many interesting analyses for constraint logic-based languages are aimed at the detection of monotonic properties, that is to say, properties that are preserved as the computation...
