Decision diagrams are the state-of-the-art representation for logic functions, both binary and multiple-valued. Here we consider issues regarding the efficient implementation of a...
Abstract. We briefly review the development and theory of an experiment to investigate quantum computation with trapped calcium ions. The ion trap, laser and ion requirements are d...

The perception-based theory of probabilistic reasoning which is outlined in this paper is not in the traditional spirit. Its principal aim is to lay the groundwork for a radical e...
We present a new algorithm for reasoning in the description logic SHIQ, which is the most prominent fragment of the Web Ontology Language OWL. The algorithm is based on ordered bi...
Abstract. We show that subsumption problems in EL and related description logics can be expressed as uniform word problems in classes of semilattices with monotone operators. We us...
