Abstract. In the quest for tractable methods for reasoning about concurrent algorithms both rely/guarantee logic and separation logic have made great advances. They both seek to ta...
We study the complexity of the problem of answering queries using materialized views. This problem has attracted a lot of attention recently because of its relevance in data integ...
We analyze the complexity of propositional kernel resolution (del Val 1999), a general method for obtaining logical consequences in restricted target languages. Different choices ...
We examine the succinctness of one-way, rotating, sweeping, and two-way deterministic finite automata (1dfas, rdfas, sdfas, 2dfas). Here, a sdfa is a 2dfa whose head can change di...
This paper focuses on the NP-hard problem of reducing the complexity of piecewise polyhedral systems (e.g. polyhedral piecewise affine (PWA) systems). The results are fourfold. Fi...
