We present a novel reasoning calculus for the Description Logic SHIQ. In order to reduce the nondeterminism due to general inclusion axioms, we base our calculus on hypertableau an...
This paper examines a new technique based on tableau, that allows one to introduce composition of roles from the right hand side of complex role inclusion axioms (RIAs). Our motiva...
Designing modern circuits comprised of millions of gates is a very challenging task. Therefore new directions are investigated for efficient modeling and verification of such syst...
Hybrid systems like computer-controlled chemical plants are typical safety critical distributed systems. In present practice, the safety of hybrid systems is guaranteed by hazard ...
Abstract. We introduce model-checking games that allow local secondorder power on sets of independent transitions in the underlying partial order models where the games are played....
