Abstract. Given a directed graph G = (V, E) and an integer k 1, a ktransitive-closure-spanner (k-TC-spanner) of G is a directed graph H = (V, EH ) that has (1) the same transitive...

Abstract. We present a new proof of decidability of higher-order subtyping in the presence of bounded quantification. The algorithm is formulated as a judgement which operates on b...
Abstract. This paper develops the model theory of ordered structures that satisfy Keisler's regularity scheme, and its strengthening REF(L) (the reflection scheme) which is an...
Traditionally, data that has both linear and hierarchical structure, such as annotated linguistic data, is modeled using ordered trees and queried using tree automata. In this pap...
This paper focuses on parallel query optimization. We consider the operator problem and introduce a new class of execution strategies called Linear-Oriented Bushy Trees (LBTs). Co...
