TLDR
A general method for proving/deciding equivalences between omega-regular languages, whose recognizers are modified forms of Buchi or Muller-McNaughton automata, derived from Milner's notion of “simulation” is obtained.

Comparing logics for rewriting

TL;DR: The aim of the paper is to analyze three proposals, namely rewriting logic, action calculi and tile logic, chosen among those formalisms designed for the description of rule-based systems, to find out a common layout where these logics can be recast.

The Tyft/Tyxt Format Reduces to Tree Rules

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the well-foundedness condition in the Congruence Theorem of [5] can be dropped for tyft/tyxt transition systems with negative premises and predicates.

A domain equation for refinement of partial systems

TL;DR: It is shown that modal transition systems are, up to a saturation condition, exactly the mixed transition systems of Dams that meet a mix condition, and it is demonstrated that many frameworks of partial systems can be translated into the domain.

Covering indexes for XML queries: bisimulation - simulation = negation

TL;DR: The last two results show that disallowing negation in the queries could substantially reduce the size of the smallest covering index for BPQ covering indexes of XML documents.

Characteristic Formulae for Timed Automata

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present characteristic formula constructions in the real-time logic L v for several behavioural relations between states of timed automata, including timed (bi)similarity, timed ready simulation, faster-than bisimilarity and timed trace inclusion.

Finite automata and their decision problems

TL;DR: Finite automata are considered as instruments for classifying finite tapes as well as generalizations of the notion of an automaton are introduced and their relation to the classical automata is determined.

Weak Second-Order Arithmetic and Finite Automata

TL;DR: The formalism of regular expressions was introduced by S. C. Kleene to obtain the following basic theorems.

Derivatives of Regular Expressions

TL;DR: In this paper the notion of a derivative of a regular expression is introduced atld the properties of derivatives are discussed and this leads, in a very natural way, to the construction of a state diagram from a regularexpression containing any number of logical operators.

An algebraic definition of simulation between programs

TL;DR: A technique is given and illustrated for proving simulation and equivalence of programs; there is an analogy with Floyd''s technique for proving correctness of programs.

Testing and generating infinite sequences by a finite automaton

TL;DR: Two apparently divergent areas of inquiry should give rise to the same problem, namely, that of describing the infinite history of finite automata, and it is this problem to which the remainder of this paper will address itself.
