This thesis analyses the city of Buenos Aires as a lived space in its historical context, based on my childhood memories. It characterizes the specific Stimmung that colours the urban and suburban spaces of Buenos Aires in the XIXth and XXth century. I ach ...
SEAM is an enterprise architecture method that defines a visual language for modeling. Our goal is to provide formal semantics for SEAM. Model simulation, model comparison, and refinement verification are practical benefits we expect from this formalizatio ...
We study the complexity and expressive power of conjunctive queries over unranked labeled trees represented using a variety of structure relations such as "child'', "descendant'', and "following'' as well as unary relations for node labels. We establish a ...
Many new applications, for example Wikis, social networks, and distributed recommender systems, require the efficient integration of decentralized and heterogenous data sources at a large scale. In this paper, we present our vision of a universal storage f ...
Praxic functions are frequently altered following brain lesion, giving rise to apraxia - a complex pattern of impairments that is difficult to assess or interpret. In this chapter, we review the current taxonomies of apraxia and related cognitive and neuro ...
Minkowski sums are a very simple geometrical operation, with applications in many different fields. In particular, Minkowski sums of polytopes have shown to be of interest to both industry and the academic world. This thesis presents a study of these sums, ...
In recent time, the idea of collecting and combining large public data sets and services became more and more popular. The special characteristics of such systems and the requirements of the participants demand for strictly decentralized solutions. However ...
Within the realm of network security, we interpret the concept of trust as a relation among entities that participate in various protocols. Trust relations are based on evidence created by the previous interactions of entities within a protocol. In this wo ...
We study the relation between Sobolev inequalities for differential forms on a Riemannian manifold (M,g) and the Lq,p-cohomology of that manifold. The Lq,p-cohomology of (M,g) is defined to be the quotient of the space of closed differential ...
The work presented in this thesis deals with several problems met in information retrieval (IR), task which one can summarise as identifying, in a collection of "documents", a subset of documents carrying a sought information, i.e.. relevant for a request ...
