Alice holds a secret integer a while Bob holds a secret integer b, they want to decide on the predicate a > b with no information revealed other than the result. This is the we...
In this paper we present a new type system for logic programs. Our system combines ideas of the classical polymorphic, but not very precise, system due to Mycroft and O'Keefe...
Abstract. State space explosion is the hardest challenge to the effective application of model checking methods. We present a new technique for achieving drastic state space reduct...
