Data integration systems offer a uniform interface to a set of data sources. Despite recent progress, setting up and maintaining a data integration application still requires sign...
Defining operational semantics for a process algebra is often based either on labeled transition systems that account for interaction with a context or on the so-called reduction ...
Estimation via sampling out of highly selective join queries is well known to be problematic, most notably in online aggregation. Without goal-directed sampling strategies, samples...
We present a process algebra with conditionally distributed discrete-time delays and generally-distributed stochastic delays. The treatment allows for expansion laws for the paral...
Autonomous agents that communicate using probabilistic information and use Bayesian networks for knowledge representation need an update mechanism that goes beyond conditioning on ...
