Certifying information flow properties of programs: an axiomatic approach
Authors: Richard P. Reitman, Gregory R. Andrews
Venue: Proceedings of the 6th ACM SIGACT-SIGPLAN symposium on Principles of programming languages (1979)

Interesting program properties other than functional correctness can be addressed and proved using axiomatic logic. An information flow logic that defines the flow semantics of a parallel programming language is presented. Proofs in this logic can be used to certify programs with respect to information security policies. The flow logic can also be combined with correctness logics to form an even more powerful deductive system.

A Variational Principle for Problems with Functional Constraints
Authors: A. D. Ioffe, R. E. Lucchetti, J. P. Revalski
Venue: SIAM Journal on Optimization (2002)

In this paper we show that in several important classes of optimization problems, like mathematical programming with k-smooth data, quadratic programming in a Hilbert space, convex programming in a Banach space, semi-infinite programming, and optimal control of linear systems with quadratic cost, most of the problems (in the Baire category sense) are well-posed. This is derived from a general variational principle for problems with functional constraints.
Approximating Binary Images from Discrete X-Rays
Authors: Peter Gritzmann, Sven de Vries, Markus Wiegelmann
Venue: SIAM Journal on Optimization (2000)

We study the problem of approximating binary images that are accessible only through few evaluations of their discrete X-ray transform, i.e., through their projections counted with multiplicity along some lines. This inverse discrete problem belongs to a class of generalized set partitioning problems and allows natural packing and covering relaxations. For these ($\mathbb{NP}$-hard) optimization problems we present various approximation algorithms and provide estimates for their worst-case performance. Further, we report on computational results for various variants of these algorithms. In particular, the corresponding integer programs are solved with only small absolute error for instances up to $250,000$ binary variables.

Nonexistence of complete (st-t/s)-arcs in generalized quadrangles of order (s, t), I
Authors: Koen Thas
Venue: Journal of Combinatorial Theory Series A (2002)

Let J be a finite generalized quadrangle (GQ) of order (s, t), s ≠ 1 ≠ t. A k-arc K is a set of k mutually non-collinear points. For any k-arc of J we have k ≤ st+1; if k = st+1, then K is an ovoid of J. A k-arc is complete if it is not contained in a k'-arc with k' > k. In S. E. Payne and J. A. Thas, Finite Generalized Quadrangles, Pitman, Boston, 1984, it is proved that an (st-m)-arc, where -1 ≤ m < t/s, is always contained in a uniquely defined ovoid, hence it is a natural question to ask whether or not complete (st-t/s)-arcs exist. In this note, we prove that the classical GQ H(4, q2) has no complete (q5 q)-arcs. We also show that a GQ J of order s with a regular point has no complete (s2-1)-arcs, except when s = 2, i.e. J ≅ 2(4, 2), and in that case there is a unique example. As a by-product there follows that no known GQ of even order s with s > 2 can have complete (s2-1)-arcs. Also, we prove that a GQ of order (s, s2), s ≠ 1, cannot have complete (s3-s)-arcs unless s = 2, i.e., J ≅ 2(5, 2), in which case there is a unique example (up to isomorphism).

Introducing modules into APL
Authors: Wai-Mee Ching
Venue: ACM SIGAPL APL Quote Quad (1981)

First we discuss the need for a language construct in APL to facilitate modular construction of large programs. Then, a construct called a module, with proposed syntax and semantic rules, is introduced as a needed addition to APL. A small example is used to illustrate how the new language construct can play its intended role.
Project-Based Software Engineering: An Object-Oriented Approach, 1st edition
Authors: Evelyn Stiller, Cathie Le Blanc, Cathie Leblanc
Venue:  (2001)

:Project-Based Software Engineering is the first textbook to provide hands-on process and practice in software engineering essentials for the beginner, enabling students without experience to gain real-world practice and see first-hand the benefits of utilizing software engineering techniques. The book presents steps through the software development life cycle, which are then realized via two running case studies that follow through the conceptualization, analysis, design, and implementation stages of the process. These case studies, which show the deliverables for each stage, can be worked through by a small software development team. A full software development project is also included so students can apply their understanding of and experience with the various phases of the process. Project-Based Software Engineering focuses on object-oriented software development, and is structured for this paradigm. It takes a mostly language-independent approach (necessary code examples are in Java) and uses a subset of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to model the software, explaining the notation as needed to support the students' work. This book is written for students and professionals alike whose goal is to gain hands-on experience in software project analysis, design, implementation, and testing.
Xml (Nitty Gritty Programming Series)
Authors: Magnus Stein, Ingo Dellwig
Venue:  (2001)

From the Book:The very fact that you are looking at this book proves that you are interested in a language with a future, since the possibilities for XML are downright enormous. We will do all we can to provide you with a quick, concise introduction to the subject. If you already have some prior knowledge about HTML, you will be better able to put it into practice with the aid of this book. If not, you will also find here an HTML crash course and the corresponding reference with the most important tags. Read more about the following technologies: DTD, SGML, CSS, XSL, XSLT, XLINKS and XHTML. You will get to know the underlying interrelationships. Unfortunately, it would be beyond the scope of this book for us to go into detail about each of these topics, but, when you have read the book, you will know at which point you should hook into XML in order to achieve your goals. We hope you will enjoy reading this book and quickly learn what you need to know.
Learning table access cardinalities with LEO
Authors: Volker Markl, Guy Lohman
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 ACM SIGMOD international conference on Management of data (2002)

LEO is a comprehensive way to repair incorrect statistics and cardinality estimates of a query execution plan. LEO introduces a feedback loop to query optimization that enhances the available information on the database where the most queries have occurred, allowing the optimizer to actually learn from its past mistakes. We demonstrate how LEO learns outdated table access statistics on a TPC-H like database schema and show that LEO improves the estimates for table cardinalities as well as filter factors for single predicates. Thus LEO enables the query optimizer to choose a better query execution plan, resulting in more efficient query processing. We not only demonstrate learning by repetitive execution of a single query, but also illustrate how similar, but not identical queries benefit from learned knowledge. In addition, we show the effect of both learning cardinalities and adjusting related statistics.

Achieving scalability in OLAP materialized view selection
Authors: Thomas P. Nadeau, Toby J. Teorey
Venue: Proceedings of the 5th ACM international workshop on Data Warehousing and OLAP (2002)

The goal of on-line analytical processing (OLAP) is to quickly answer queries from large amounts of data residing in a data warehouse. Materialized view selection is an optimization problem encountered in OLAP systems. Published work on the problem of materialized view selection presents solutions scalable in the number of possible views. However, the number of possible views is exponential relative to the number of database dimensions. A truly scalable solution must be polynomial time relative to the number of dimensions. We present such a solution, our Polynomial Greedy Algorithm. Complexity analysis proves scalability, and a performance study verifies the result. Empirical evidence demonstrates benefits close to existing algorithms. We conclude the Polynomial Greedy Algorithm functions effectively where existing algorithms fail dramatically.
