Formal Choreographic Languages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
We introduce formal choreography languages as a meta-model to study message-passing systems. This allows us to compare and generalise standard constructions and properties from the literature. In particular, we consider notions such as global view, local view, and projections from the former to the latter.

Analogy and Formal Languages [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2004
AbstractIn this paper, we advocate a study of analogies between strings of symbols for their own sake. We show how some sets of strings, i.e., some formal languages, may be characterized by use of analogies. We argue that some preliminary “good properties” obtained may plead in favour of the use of analogy in the study of formal languages in ...

Big Picture on Privacy Enhancing Technologies in e-Health: A Holistic Personal Privacy Workflow

open access: yesInformation, 2020
The collection and processing of personal data offers great opportunities for technological advances, but the accumulation of vast amounts of personal data also increases the risk of misuse for malicious intentions, especially in health care.

On the expressiveness of spider diagrams and commutative star-free regular languages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Spider diagrams provide a visual logic to express relations between sets and their elements, extending the expressiveness of Venn diagrams. Sound and complete inference systems for spider diagrams have been developed and it is known that they are ...

The languages of artificial intelligence, the languages of metaphysics, and the languages of faith

open access: yesScientia et Fides, 2014
The formalization of the languages of mathematics has led to the formal languages of computer science and artificial intelligence. This article studies a few semantic properties of the formal languages of artificial intelligence, which I call languages ...

Finite Automata with Generalized Acceptance Criteria [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2001
We examine the power of nondeterministic finite automata with acceptance of an input word defined by a leaf language, i.e., a condition on the sequence of leaves in the automaton's computation tree.

Overview on Agent-Based Social Modelling and the Use of Formal Languages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The use of agent-based modelling and simulation techniques in the social sciences has flourished in the recent decades. The main reason is that the object of study in these disciplines, human society present or past, is difficult to analyse through ...

Formalization of the DE2 Language [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We formalized the DE2 hierarchical, occurrence-oriented finite state machine (FSM) language, and have developed a proof theory allowing the mechanical verification of FSM descriptions. Using the ACL2 functional logic, we have defined a predicate for detecting the well-formedness of DE2 expressions.
