We identify a new class of non-circular attribute grammars, called the multi-plan attribute grammars, for which static evaluation plans can be computed. The class of multi-plan attribute grammars is larger than all currently known classes of non-circular attribute grammars with static evaluation plans. The decision procedure and the procedure for computing evaluation plans take essentially poly...

Asbru is a complex formal language developed to represent clinical guidelines and protocols which are timeand processoriented. To facilitate and support the modeling in Asbru methods and tools are required. In this paper, we provide a systematic analysis of the various plan components and their temporal interdependences (written in Asbru) to infer heuristics for our methods and tools. We develo...
