Security protocols are essential to the proper functioning of any distributed system running over an insecure network but often have flaws that can be exploited even without breaking the cryptography. Formal cryptography, the assumption that the cryptograp ...
There is a duality in plant tolerance to pollutants and its response to the pollutants’ stress. On the one hand some plants, (hyper)tolerant to heavy metals, are able to hyperaccumulate these metals in shoots, which could be beneficial for phytoremediation ...
Pattern matching is a widespread programming language construct that enables definitions of values by cases, generalizing if-then-else and case statements. The cases in a pattern matching expression should be exhaustive: when the value does not match any o ...
This project proposes a new approach to interact with database systems through programming languages. A formal query language can be integrated within modern programming languages and the semi-structured queries can be evaluated using automatic transformat ...
Metamodeling is raising more and more interest in the field of language engineering. While this approach is now well understood for the definition of abstract syntaxes, the formal definition of concrete syntaxes is still a challenge. Concrete syntaxes are ...
The detection of chromosomal aberrations constitutes an important stage in the comprehension of the pathogenesis of several diseases, as cancer. In this case, the amplification or deletion (suppression) of some chromosomal regions, was identified as being ...
BACKGROUND: High-density oligonucleotide arrays (HDONAs) are a powerful tool for assessing differential mRNA expression levels. To establish the statistical significance of an observed change in expression, one must take into account the noise introduced b ...
Successful information management implies the ability to design accurate representations of the real world of interest to targeted applications. Current systems do not provide representation schemes supporting the diversity of user needs. In the context of ...

Presents a novel extension to the C++ programming language, allowing powerful expression of concurrency and synchronization in an object-oriented environment. The principal advantages of this extension over existing alternatives are its powerful, yet simpl ...
