We propose an analysis for detecting procedures and goals that are deterministic (i.e. that produce at most one solution), or predicates whose clause tests are mutually exclusive (...
Dealing with imprecise information is a common characteristic in real-world problems. Specifically, when the source of the information are physical sensors, a level of noise in t...
The majority of work carried out in the formal methods community throughout the last three decades has (for good reasons) been devoted to special languages designed to make it eas...

Dynamic Power Management (DPM) is a technique to reduce power consumption of electronic systems by selectively shutting down idle components. The quality of the shutdown control a...
Complete algorithms have been proposed to solve problems modelled as distributed constraint optimization (DCOP). However, there are only few attempts to address real world scenari...
