We describe an extension of graphplan to a subset of ADL that allows conditional and universally quanti ed e ects in operators in such a way that almost all interesting properties of the original graph plan algorithm are preserved

We present a fully dynamic algorithm for split graphs that supports the following types of operations: (1) query whether deleting or inserting an edge preserves the split property, (2) query whether inserting a new vertex with a given neighborhood in the current graph preserves the split property, (3) insert or delete an edge or a vertex when the split property is preserved, (4) insert an edge ...

We present a new structuring and veri cation method for distributed algo rithms The basic idea is that an algorithm to be veri ed is stepwise transformed into a high level speci cation through a number of steps so called coarsements At each step some mechanism of the algorithm is identi ed and removed while the basic computation of the original algorithm is preserved Only the essential parts of...

Traditional noise removal methods like Non-Local Means create spurious boundaries inside regular zones. Visushrink removes too many coefficients and yields recovered images that are overly smoothed. In Bayesshrink method, sharp features are preserved. However, PSNR (Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio) is considerably low. BLS-GSM generates some discontinuous information during the course of denoising a...

We present a structuring and verification method for distributed algorithms. The basic idea is that an algorithm to be verified is stepwise transformed into a high level specification through a number of steps, so-called coarsenings. At each step some mechanism of the algorithm is identified and removed while the basic computation of the original algorithm is preserved. Only the essential parts...
