Quantitative temporal reasoning [PDF]
A substantially large class of programs operate in distributed and real-time environments, and an integral part of their correctness specification requires the expression of time-critical properties that relate the occurrence of events of the system. We focus on the formal specification and reasoning about the correctness of such programs. We propose a

Intuitive interference in quantitative reasoning [PDF]
It is well known that surface features of a task can queue multiple reasoning strategies. Interference or conflict among the strategies is signaled by increasing reaction times and error rates. To determine the neural basis of this interference, we studied 14 volunteers using event-related fMRI, as they compared the perimeters of geometrical shapes in ...

Applying Quantitative Reasoning to Clarify Arc Measurements
The importance of reasoning quantitatively is reflected in both mathematics education research and mathematical standards for K-12 students. In this article, we detail how a quantitative reasoning framework can be used to help differentiate two ...

An Astronomer’s Journey into Quantitative Reasoning
The University of Colorado Boulder campus introduced what may have been the world’s first quantitative reasoning (QR) requirement in 1984 and started offering a QR course in 1988.

Fibrational Bisimulations and Quantitative Reasoning [PDF]
Bisimulation and bisimilarity are fundamental notions in comparing state-based systems. Their extensions to a variety of systems have been actively pursued in recent years, a notable direction being quantitative extensions. In this paper we present an abstract categorical framework for such extended (bi)simulation notions.

Qualitative Reasoning for Quantitative Simulation
Qualitative simulation is a well-known reasoning technique that involves the use of simulation technologies. Reasoning is made to determine qualitative values and change directions of system variables, and it is done for each time point and time interval
