Reasoning about Optimistic Concurrency Using a Program Logic for History
Optimistic concurrency algorithms provide good performance for parallel programs but they are extremely hard to reason about. Program logics such as concurrent separation logic and...

Reasoning by Dominance in Not-Equals Binary Constraint Networks
Dynamic detection and elimination of symmetry in constraints, is in general a hard task, but in Not-Equals binary constraint networks, the symmetry conditions can be simplified. I...

Towards Sharp Inapproximability For Any 2-CSP
We continue the recent line of work on the connection between semidefinite programming-based approximation algorithms and the Unique Games Conjecture. Given any boolean 2-CSP (or...

Integrating Rules and Connectionism for Robust Reasoning
A connectionist model for robust reasoning, CONSYDERR, is proposed to account for some common reasoning patterns found in commonsense reasoning and to remedy the brittleness probl...

A Framework for Multi-Valued Reasoning over Inconsistent Viewpoints
In requirements elicitation, different stakeholders often hold different views of how a proposed system should behave, resulting in inconsistencies between their descriptions. Con...
