We construct here an iterative evaluation of all PR map codes: progress of this iteration is measured by descending complexity within “Ordinal” O : = N[ω] of polynomials in one indeterminate, ordered lexicographically. Non-infinit descent of such iterations is added as a mild additional axiom schema (πO) to Theory PRA = PR + (abstr) of Primitive Recursion with predicate abstraction, out of forg...

The type system of Objective Caml has many unique features, which make ensuring the correctness of its implementation difficult. One of these features is structurally polymorphic types, such as polymorphic object and variant types, which have the extra specificity of allowing recursion. I implemented in Coq a certified interpreter for Core ML extended with structural polymorphism and recursion....

This paper describes a method of performance evaluation and remaining life prediction for an aged reinforced concrete (RC) T-girder bridge by J-BMS RC version via close visual inspection data, and also verifies the assessment results obtained as outputs from the Bridge Rating Expert System (RC-BREX) which is a subsystem of the J-BMS, to evaluate the effectiveness of the system. The Bridge Manag...

Horse breeding is the procedure by which an adequate number of sperm are deposited into the uterus of a “healthy” mare at the right time. Although semen deposition is performed in all breeds by natural cover (NC), it is often, and with increasing frequency, done artificially. Although the main difference between natural breeding and artificial insemination (AI) is the delivery method of semen i...

A contextual effect system generalizes standard type and effect systems: where a standard effect system computes the effect of an expression e, a contextual effect system additionally computes the prior and future effect of e, which characterize the behavior of computation prior to and following, respectively, the evaluation of e. This paper describes the formalization and proof of soundness of...

We discuss the impact of Partial Evaluation within the framework of structured logic programming. We define a general scheme for Partial Evaluation to be applied to a wide class of structuring policies for logic programming, capable of supporting both blockand inheritancebased systems. We show how the properties of soundness and completeness of Partial Evaluation in Logic Programming are preser...
