The objective of this paper is to investigate the problems related to the extensional integration of information sources. In particular, we propose an approach for managing incons...
A controversial issue in the formal methods community is the degree to which mathematical sophistication and theorem proving skills should be needed to apply a formal method. A fun...
We formulate an algebra of binary temporal relations between events the number of occurrences of which is unknown, but which are known to recur in time. Ontologically, we view the...
This paper presents a new optimization metaheuristic called ID Walk (Intensification/Diversification Walk) that offers advantages for combining simplicity with effectiveness. In ad...
Concurrent reachability games is a class of games heavily studied by the computer science community, in particular by the formal methods community. Two standard algorithms for app...
