This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Symposium on Foundations of Information and Knowledge Systems, held in February 2006. The 14 revised full papers presented together with three revised short papers and one invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. Among the topics covered are the theoretical foundations of information and knowledge systems, as well as mathematical fields such as discrete mathematics, combinatorics, logics and finite model theory, and applications thereof for research on database and knowledge base theory.
This study is an important new account of the life and work of the flemish master Petrus Christus. It is the first volume to focus specifically on the physical characteristics of his works as criteria for judging attribution, dating, and the extent to which he was indebted to Jan Van Eyck and other artists for the development of his technique and style.
This book introduces a design methodology that can help to bridge the productivity gap. Two different types of designs, depending on the design challenge, have been identified. To validate the presented methodologies, the authors have selected and designed accordingly three different industrial-strength applications.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Database Theory, ICDT 2001, held in London, UK, in January 2001. The 26 revised full papers presented together with two invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 75 submissions. All current issues on database theory and the foundations of database systems are addressed. Among the topics covered are database queries, SQL, information retrieval, database logic, database mining, constraint databases, transactions, algorithmic aspects, semi-structured data, data engineering, XML, term rewriting, clustering, etc.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Symposium on Foundations of Information and Knowledge Systems, FoIKS 2020, held in Dortmund, Germany, in February 2020. The 19 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. The papers address various topics such as big data; database design; dynamics of information; information fusion; integrity and constraint management; intelligent agents; knowledge discovery and information retrieval; knowledge representation, reasoning and planning; logics in databases and AI; mathematical foundations; security in information and knowledge systems; semi-structured data and XML; social computing; the semantic web and knowledge management; and the world wide web.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 8th International Joint Conference on Rules and Reasoning, RuleML+RR 2024, held in Bucharest, Romania, during September 16-18, 2024. The 12 full papers and 4 short papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 35 submissions. The RuleML+RR symposia were devoted to disseminating research, applications, languages, and standards for rule technologies, with attention to both theoretical and practical developments, to challenging new ideas and to industrial applications.
Fundamentals of Information Systems contains articles from the 7th International Workshop on Foundations of Models and Languages for Data and Objects (FoMLaDO '98), which was held in Timmel, Germany. These articles capture various aspects of database and information systems theory: identification as a primitive of database models deontic action programs marked nulls in queries topological canonization in spatial databases complexity of search queries complexity of Web queries attribute grammars for structured document queries hybrid multi-level concurrency control efficient navigation in persistent object stores formal semantics of UML reengineering of object bases and integrity dependence . Fundamentals of Information Systems serves as an excellent reference, providing insight into some of the most challenging research issues in the field.
This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 21st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming (ICALP 94), held at Jerusalem in July 1994. ICALP is an annual conference sponsored by the European Association on Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS). The proceedings contains 48 refereed papers selected from 154 submissions and 4 invited papers. The papers cover the whole range of theoretical computer science; they are organized in sections on theory of computation, automata and computation models, expressive power, automata and concurrency, pattern matching, data structures, computational complexity, logic and verification, formal languages, term rewriting, algorithms and communications, graph algorithms, randomized complexity, various algorithms.
Surveys of current research in logical aspects of computer science that apply finite and infinite model-theoretic methods.
