My talk will be a survey of recent results about the quest for a logic capturing polynomial time. In a fundamental study of database query languages, Chandra and Harel [4] first ra...
The ordered conjecture states that least fixed-point logic LFP is strictly more expressive than first-order logic FO on every infinite class of ordered finite structures. It has b...
Close relationships between XML navigation and temporal logics have been discovered recently, in particular between logics LTL and CTL⋆ and XPath navigation, and between the µ-c...
Much attention has been directed to different aspects of the design of pipelines [1,2,3,4]. Design of the control logic of non-linear pipelines has however, been considered as a su...
