A Modal Logic for KLAIM
, 2000
"... . Klaim is an experimental programming language that supports a programming paradigm where both processes and data can be moved across dierent computing environments. The language relies on the use of explicit localities, and on allocation environments that associate logical localities to physical s ..."

with a consistent and complete proof system that enables one to prove properties of mobile systems. Keywords: Mobile Code Languages, Temporal Logics of Programs, Coordination Models. 1 Introduction The increasing use of wide area networks, especially the World Wide Web, is calling for new programming
A deontic logic for reasoning about confidentiality
"... This paper presents a deontic logic \Sigma for reasoning about per- mission or prohibition to know some parts of the datab!ase content in the context of a multilevel confidentiality policy. The most important logical features in the definition of a multi- level policy are that each confidentiality ..."

by non-standard modal models. The corresponding axiomatics is also presented in the paper and its soundness and completeness have been proved. A limitation of the \Sigma logic is that sentences in the scope of modalities are sentences of Propositional Calculus. Finally, it is shown how the logic can
Rules for Trace Consistent Reasoning
"... Formulas of temporal logic which cannot distinguish between different interleavings of the same run are said to be trace consistent. So called partial-order methods can be applied for verification of such formulas, since checking such a property over an equivalence class of runs reduces to checking ..."

The rules lead us to a complete axiomatization of a linear time temporal logic, all formulas of which are trace consistent. The axiomatization is presented in a layered manner so that we can attempt
Consistency Reasoning in Lattice-Based Fuzzy Description Logics
"... Fuzzy Description Logics have been widely studied as a formalism for representing and reasoning with vague knowledge. One of the most basic reasoning tasks in (fuzzy) Description Logics is to decide whether an ontology representing a knowledge domain is consistent. Surprisingly, not much is known ab ..."

On Completeness of Logics Enriched with Transitive Closure Modality
"... We give a sufficient condition for Kripke completeness of the extension of a modal logic with the transitive closure modality. More precisely, we show that if a logic is canonical and admits what we call definable filtration (ADF), then such an extension is complete (and again ADF). The transitive c ..."

Self-determination and persistence in a real-life setting: Toward a motivational model of high school dropout.
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
, 1997
"... The purpose of this study was to propose and test a motivational model of high school dropout. The model posits that teachers, parents, and the school administration's behaviors toward students influence students' perceptions of competence and autonomy. The less autonomy supportive the so ..."

-determination has been hypothesized to be associated with enhanced psychological functioning In addition, much experimental (laboratory) research reveals that individuals who are induced to become externally regulated persist much less than those who are intrinsically motivated (see Deci & Ryan, 1985, for a
Interval propagation to reason about sets: definition and implementation of a practical language
- CONSTRAINTS
, 1997
"... Local consistency techniques have been introduced in logic programming in order to extend the application domain of logic programming languages. The existing languages based on these techniques consider arithmetic constraints applied to variables ranging over nite integer domains. This makes difficu ..."

To overcome these problems, we propose a solution which consists in extending the notion of integer domains to that of set domains (sets of sets). We specify a
A critical role for the right fronto-insular cortex in switching between central-executive and default-mode networks.
- Proc Natl Acad Sci USA
, 2008
"... Cognitively demanding tasks that evoke activation in the brain's central-executive network (CEN) have been consistently shown to evoke decreased activation (deactivation) in the default-mode network (DMN). The neural mechanisms underlying this switch between activation and deactivation of larg ..."

Bimodal Logics for Reasoning About Continuous Dynamics
- Advances in Modal Logic
, 2000
"... We study a propositional bimodal logic consisting of two S4 modalities and [a], together with the interaction axiom scheme #a## # #a##. In the intended semantics, the plain is given the McKinsey-Tarski interpretation as the interior operator of a topology, while the labelled [a] is given the ..."

On the Restraining Power of Guards

, 1998

Guarded fragments of first-order logic were recently introduced by Andr'eka, van Benthem and N'emeti; they consist of relational first-order formulae whose quantifiers are appropriately relativized by atoms. These fragments are interesting because they extend in a natural way many proposit ..."
