Ownership domain annotations enable obtaining at compiletime the system’s execution structure from the annotated program. The execution structure is sound, hierarchical (and thu...
Obligations are pervasive in modern systems, often linked to access control decisions. We present a very general model of obligations as objects with state, and discuss its interac...

We present new combinatorial approximation algorithms for k-set cover. Previous approaches are based on extending the greedy algorithm by efficiently handling small sets. The new a...

In this paper, a novel genetically-inspired visual learning method is proposed. Given the training images, this general approach induces a sophisticated feature-based recognition s...
Recently there has been increased interest in logic programming-based default reasoning approaches which are not using negation-as-failure in their object language. Instead, defau...
