Shape grammars play an important role in a new generation of tools for the analysis and design of products. In this work we present a general tool named Shape Grammar Interpreter (SGI) for the automatic generation of designs. The developed shape grammar framework allows designers to obtain automatically generated designs and to participate in the design process. In that way the generated design...

Fleet management systems are commonly used to coordinate mobility and delivery services in a broad variety of domains. However, their traditional top-down control architecture becomes a bottleneck in open and dynamic environments, where scalability, proactiveness, and autonomy are becoming key factors for their success. Here, the authors present an abstract event-based architecture for fleet ma...

We slightly improve on characterization results already in the literature for base revision. We show that in order to axiomatically characterize revision operators in a logic the only conditions this logic is required to satisfy are: finitarity and monotonicity. A characterization of limiting cases of revision operators, full meet and maxichoice, is also offered. In the second part of the paper...

An accurate, comprehensive, non-redundant and up-to-date bibliography is a crucial component of any Model Organism Database (MOD). Principally, the bibliography provides a set of references that are specific to the field served by the MOD. Moreover, it serves as a backbone to which all curated biological data can be attributed. Here, we describe the organization and main features of the bibliog...
