logic analysis and attack construction methods are two major approaches in verification of cryptographic protocols. however, it is almost preferable to use both of them for a complete analysis. in this paper, a generic framework for the integration of the two verification approaches is presented. using the framework we can propose analysis methods in which security properties and breach scenari...

We propose a logical analysis of the concept of typicality, central in human cognition (Rosch,1978). We start from an extension of Description Logic ALC (a computationally tractable fragment of First Order Logic, used to represent concept inclusions and ontologies) with a typicality operator T to consistently represent inheritance with exceptions (e.g. (i)typical birds fly, (ii) penguins are bi...

First experiment neurophysiological results Neurophysiological measurements used multiple sources of input: Electroencephalography (EEG), electrocardiography (ECG), and functional near-infrared (fNIR). These tools provide high degrees of temporal sensitivity to change with minimal interference with the first-person experiences during stimulus presentation. The B-Alert X10 wireless EEG will coll...

The abstract interpretation of programs relates the exact semantics of a programming language to a finite approximation of those semantics. In this article, we describe an approach to abstract interpretation that is based in logic and logic programming. Our approach consists of faithfully representing a transition system within logic and then manipulating this initial specification to create a ...

y Abstract This paper presents a framework for comparing two strictness analysis techniques: Abstract interpretation and non{standard type inference. The comparison is based on the representation of a lattice by its ideals. A formal system for deducing inclusions between ideals of a lattice is presented and proved sound and complete. Viewing the ideals as strictness properties we use the formal...

Our paper proposes a technique for performing logical analysis over the calculi for communication and mobility, i.e., Ambient Calculus type of calculi. We show how this analysis can be used in the case of biological models in order to obtain significant information for biologists. The technique is based on set theoretical models we developed for ambient processes by using the power of Hypersets...
