The ability to use a polynomial iterpretation to prove termination of a rewrite system naturally prompts the question as to what restriction on complexity this imposes. The main r...
We extend the centering model for the resolution of intia-sentential anaphora and specify how to handle complex sentences. An empirical evaluation indicates that the functional in...
Abstract. Proving the termination of a flowchart program can be done by exhibiting a ranking function, i.e., a function from the program states to a wellfounded set, which strictl...

We prove that the reliable computation of any Boolean function with sensitivity s requires Ω(s log s) gates if the gates of the circuit fail independently with a fixed positive...
Recent studies have provided many characterisations of the class of polynomial time computable functions through term rewriting techniques. In this paper we describe a (fully autom...
