In evolving applications, there is a need for the dynamic selection of algorithms or algorithm parameters. Such selection is hardly ever governed by exact theory, so intelligent r...
We present a process algebra for modeling and reasoning about Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) and their protocols. In our algebra we model the essential modeling concepts of ad ho...
An important direction in database research for non-standard applications (e.g. engineering or design applications) deals with adequate support for complex objects. Without doubt,...
We study the partial algebra of typed terms with an associative commutative and idempotent operator (typed AC-terms). The originality lies in the representation of the typing poli...
With the substantial change of declarative query languages from plain SQL to the so-called \object SQLs", in particular OQL, there has surprisingly been not much change in the...
