Linear precedence (LP) rules are widely used for stating word order principles. They have been adopted as constraints by HPSG but no encoding in the formalism has been provided. S...
Abstract. This paper presents two new approaches to prove termination of rewrite systems with the Knuth-Bendix order efficiently. The constraints for the weight function and for th...
Abstract. We present Minion, a new constraint solver. Empirical results on standard benchmarks show orders of magnitude performance gains over state-of-the-art constraint toolkits....
Abstract. The dependency pair method is a powerful method for automatically proving termination of rewrite systems. When used with traditional simplification orders like LPO and K...
Frequent constraint violations on the data stored in a database may suggest that the semantics of the represented reality is changing. In this work we propose a methodology and a t...
