Abstract. We consider the iterates of bilinear functions over the semiring (max, +). Equivalently, our object of study can be viewed as recognizable tree series over the semiring (...

We present a simple but powerful new probabilistic technique for analyzing the combinatorial complexity of various substructures in arrangements of piecewise-linear surfaces in hig...
Local search is widely applied to satisfiable SAT problems, and on some problem classes outperforms backtrack search. An intriguing challenge posed by Selman, Kautz and McAlleste...
In this paper we present the application of the fair testing pre-order, introduced in a previous paper, to the speci cation and analysis of distributed systems. This pre-order com...
Metaprogramming adds new expressive power to logic programming which can be advantageous to transfer to the field of deductive databases. We propose metaprogramming as a way to mo...
