A depth-first search algorithm can be used to find optimal solutions of a Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) with respect to a set of conditional preferences statements (e.g.,...
In this paper we describe BR-4, a computational model of scienti c discovery in particle physics. The system incorporates operators for determining quantum values of known particle...
Although more efficient in computation compared to other tracking approaches such as particle filtering, the kernel-based tracking suffers from the "singularity" problem...
Web services send and receive messages in XML syntax with some parts hashed, encrypted or signed, according to the WS-Security standard. In this paper we introduce a model to forma...
Temporal logics are well suited for the specification and verification of systems of communicating agents. In this paper we adopt a social approach to agent communication, where c...
