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...
We describe BDD-based decision procedures for the modal logic K. Our approach is inspired by the automata-theoretic approach, but we avoid explicit automata construction. Instead, ...
— XQuery, the defacto XML query language, is a functional language with operational semantics, which precludes the direct application of classical query optimization techniques. ...
