We present a novel proof of Toyama's famous modularity of confluence result for term rewriting systems. Apart from being short and intuitive, the proof is modular itself in th...
We present a new methodology for automatic verification of C programs against finite state machine specifications. Our approach is compositional, naturally enabling us to decompos...

Abstract. Through task decomposition and module combination, minmax modular support vector machines (M3 -SVMs) can be successfully used for difficult pattern classification task. ...
We study decompositions of the global NVALUE constraint. Our main contribution is theoretical: we show that there are propagators for global constraints like NVALUE which decomposi...

For more than a decade, the trend in geometric constraint systems solving has been to use a geometric decomposition/recombination approach. These methods are generally grounded on...
