— This paper considers a formal object-oriented model for distributed computing. Object orientation appears as a leading framework for concurrent and distributed systems. However...
This paper considers an integration of asynchronous communication, virtual binding, and multiple inheritance. Object orientation is the leading paradigm for concurrent and distribu...
Disunification is the problem of deciding satisfiability of a system of equations and disequations with respect to a given equational theory. In this paper we study the disunifica...
In this paper we present a mechanism for translating constraint queries, i.e., Boolean expressions of constraints, across heterogeneous information sources. Integrating such syste...
We present a completion procedure (called MKB) that works for multiple reduction orderings. Given equations and a set of reduction orderings, the procedure simulates a computation ...
