This paper describes the Region Occlusion Calculus (ROC-20), that can be used to model spatial occlusion and the effects of motion parallax of arbitrary shaped objects. ROC-20 ass...
We present a sound and complete calculus for causal relevance that uses Pearl's functional causal models as semantics. The calculus consists of axioms and rules of inference ...
Motivated by the need to reason about utilities, and inspired by the success of bayesian networks in representing and reasoning about probabilities, we introduce the notion of uti...
The advent of proof-carrying code has generated significant interest in reasoning about low-level languages. It is widely believed that low-level languages with jumps must be diff...
Much of the elegance and power of Smalltalk comes from its programming environment and tools. First introduced more than 20 years ago, the Smalltalk browser enables programmers to...
