We present a methodology for using analogy to derive programs based on a derivational transformation method. The derived programs are deductively closed under the rules in the kno...
We consider the problem of discovering a smooth unknown surface S bounding an object O in R3 . The discovery process consists of moving a point probing device in the free space ar...

Given a sequence S of n symbols over some alphabet Σ, we develop a new compression method that is (i) very simple to implement; (ii) provides O(1) time random access to any symbol...
The paper outlines an approach to the formal representation of signalling conventions, emphasising the prominent role played therein by a particular type of normative modality. It ...
Data consistency in transactional federations is a key requirement of advanced E-service applications on the Internet, such as electronic auctions or real-estate purchase. Federat...
