• GPU-Based Parallelism for ASP-Solving 

  Dovier A; Formisano A; Vella F (Springer, 2020)

  Answer Set Programming (ASP) has become the paradigm of choice in the field of logic programming and non-monotonic reasoning. With the design of new and efficient solvers, ASP has been successfully adopted in a wide range ...
• On TD-WGcluster: Theoretical foundations and guidelines for the user 

  Re A; Lecca P (Humana Press Inc., 2020)

• Emulating Self-adaptive Stochastic Petri Nets 

  Capra L; Camilli M (Springer, 2020)

  Traditional Petri nets lack specific features to conveniently describe systems with an evolving structure. A model based on the Symmetric Net formalism has been recently introduced. It is composed of an emulator reproducing ...
• An Architecture-independent Data Model for Managing Information Generated by Human-chatbot Interactions 

  Luca M; Montresor A; Caprini C; Miorandi D (SciTe Press, 2020)

  This paper introduces a data model for representing humans-chatbots interactions. Despite there are many models that allow representing the usage and the behaviour of bots, a service that can store information from any ...
• StuffIE: Semantic Tagging of Unlabeled Facets Using Fine-Grained Information Extraction 

  Prasojo RE; Kacimi M; Nutt W (ACM, 2018)

  Recent knowledge extraction methods are moving towards ternary and higher-arity relations to capture more information about binary facts. An example is to include the time, the location, and the duration of a specific fact. ...
• Semantic Technologies for Data Access and Integration 

  Calvanese D; Xiao G (ACM, 2018)
