Response time delays caused by I/O are a major problem in many systems and database applications. Prefetching and cache replacement methods are attracting renewed attention because...
Current explanation-based generalization (EBG) techniques can perform badly when the problem being solved involves recursion. Often an infinite series of learned concepts are gene...
The foundations of a class of logic programming systems with the expressive power of full first-order logic and a non-monotonic component is addressed. The underlying refutation m...

Level-expanding quasi-birth-and-death (QBD) processes have been shown to be an efficient modeling tool for studying multi-dimensional systems, especially twodimensional ones. Comp...
We solve a longstanding problem by providing a denotational model for nondeterministic programs that identifies two programs iff they have the same range of possible behaviours. W...
