Abstract--If we are to deploy sensor applications in a realistic business context, we must provide innovative middleware services to control and enforce required system behavior; i...
Safety-critical systems typically operate in unpredictable environments. Requirements for safety and reliability are in conflict with those for real-time responsiveness. Due to un...
This paper describes the dual use of a case base for diagnosis and for improving the design of a manufacturing process. In the short term, the case base is used to provide past ex...

We present a goal replacement rule whose main applicability condition is based on termination properties of the resulting transformed program. The goal replacement rule together wi...
Shannon's Coding Theorem shows that in order to reliably transmit a message of T bits over a noisy communication channel, only a constant slowdown factor is necessary in the ...
