Leveraging Qualitative Reasoning to Improve SFL [PDF]
Spectrum-based fault localization (SFL) correlates a system's components with observed failures. By reasoning about coverage, SFL allows for a lightweight way of pinpointing faults. This abstraction comes at the cost of missing certain faults, such as errors of omission, and failing to provide enough contextual information to explain why components are

SFL approaches to language dynamics and contrast [PDF]
In the introduction to this special issue we consider the dynamics of language from three interrelated perspectives: ontogenesis, or the development of the language system in the individual; logogenesis, or the development of meanings across texts and discourses; and phylogenesis, or the changes to individual language systems over time.

The Spatially Resolved Star Formation Law from Integral Field Spectroscopy: VIRUS-P Observations of NGC 5194 [PDF]
We investigate the relation between the star formation rate surface density (Sigma_SFR) and the mass surface density of gas (Sigma_gas) in NGC 5194. VIRUS-P integral field spectroscopy is used to measure H-alpha, H-beta [NII]6548,6584, and [SII]6717,6731

Enhanced sharing analysis techniques: a comprehensive evaluation [PDF]
Sharing, an abstract domain developed by D. Jacobs and A. Langen for the analysis of logic programs, derives useful aliasing information. It is well-known that a commonly used core of techniques, such as the integration of Sharing with freeness and ...

A correct, precise and efficient integration of set-sharing, freeness and linearity for the analysis of finite and rational tree languages [PDF]
It is well known that freeness and linearity information positively interact with aliasing information, allowing both the precision and the efficiency of the sharing analysis of logic programs to be improved. In this paper, we present a novel combination

Modelling interfaces with context in SFL
Abstract This is a study of the tools for describing language-in-context in Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), and specifically, the way in which dynamic time can be added to this description. Of central importance in this exploration are the concepts of stratification and instantiation and their interaction, and the way in which this

The Complexity of Reasoning for Fragments of Autoepistemic Logic [PDF]
Autoepistemic logic extends propositional logic by the modal operator L. A formula that is preceded by an L is said to be "believed". The logic was introduced by Moore 1985 for modeling an ideally rational agent's behavior and reasoning about his own ...
