We give examples of situations where formal specifications of procedures in the standard pre/postcondition style become lengthy, cumbersome and difficult to change, a problem whic...

A common method for constructing a function from a finite set of moments is to solve a constrained minimization problem. The idea is to find, among all functions with the given ...
Moment computation is essential to the analysis of stochastic kinetic models of biochemical reaction networks. It is often the case that the moment evolution, usually the first and...
Given a directed graph G = (V, E) and an integer k ≥ 1, a Steiner k-transitive-closure-spanner (Steiner k-TC-spanner) of G is a directed graph H = (VH , EH ) such that (1) V ⊆ ...
