We show the expressiveness provided by a Labelled point-based metric model for specifying and reasoning about complex disjunctive temporal constraints. The model allows us to mana...
A continuous nearest neighbor query retrieves the nearest neighbor (NN) of every point on a line segment (e.g., "find all my nearest gas stations during my route from point s...
—Performance Trees are a recently-proposed mechanism for the specification of performance properties and measures. They represent an attractive alternative to stochastic logics,...
