Gaussian elimination is the basis for classical algorithms for computing canonical forms of integer matrices. Experimental results have shown that integer Gaussian elimination may...
We study the data complexity of instance checking and conjunctive query answering in the EL family of description logics, with a particular emphasis on the boundary of tractability...
An often-mentioned advantage of rule-based programming languages is that a program can be extended simply by adding a few more rules. In practice however, the rules tend to be dep...
Abstract. Conjunctive query answering plays a prominent role in applications of description logics (DLs) that involve instance data, but its exact complexity was a long-standing op...
We study definability of languages in arithmetic and the free monoid by bounded versions of fixed-point and transitive-closure logics. In particular we give logical characterisat...
