We describe an automatic verification method to check whether transactional memories ensure strict serializability--a key property assumed of the transactional interface. Our main...
Nestedness is a property of binary matrices of ecological data and quantified by the matrix's temperature, T. The program widely used to calculate T is Nestedness Temperature...
Mixed Multi-Unit Combinatorial Auctions extend and generalize all the preceding types of combinatorial auctions. In this paper, we try to make headway on the practical application...
Systems of explicit mathematics provide an axiomatic framework to represent programs and to prove properties of them. We introduce such a system with a new form of power types usi...
In this paper, we present our development of a document management and retrieval tool, which is named Ontalk. Our system provides a semi-automatic metadata generator and an ontolo...
