Abstract. There is currently great interest in integrating knowledge discovery research into mainstream database systems. Such an enterprise is nontrivial because knowledge discove...
The ultimate goal of logic synthesis is to explore implementation flexibility toward meeting design targets, such as area, power, and delay. Traditionally, such flexibility is exp...
We propose an epistemic logic for the applied pi calculus, which is a variant of the pi calculus with extensions for modeling cryptographic protocols. In such a calculus, the secur...
Abstract. We provide a framework for distributed systems that impose timing constraints on their executions. We propose a timed model of communicating finite-state machines, which...
A fundamental requirement for cooperating agents is to agree on a selection of component values of objects that can be used for reliably communicating references to the objects, to...
