  1. Transforming Outermost into Context-Sensitive Rewriting.

    Abstract

    We define two transformations from term rewriting systems (TRSs) to
    context-sensitive TRSs in such a way that termination of the target system
    implies outermost termination of the original system. In the transformation
    based on 'context extension', each outermost rewrite step is modeled by exactly
    one step in the transformed system. This transformation turns out to be
    complete for the class of left-linear TRSs. The second transformation is called
    `dynamic labeling' and results in smaller sized context-sensitive TRSs.

  2. Asynchronous Bounded Expected Delay Networks.

    Abstract

    The commonly used asynchronous bounded delay (ABD) network models assume a
    fixed bound on message delay. We propose a probabilistic network model, called
    asynchronous bounded expected delay (ABE) model. Instead of a strict bound, the
    ABE model requires only a bound on the expected message delay. While the
    conditions of ABD networks restrict the set of possible executions, in ABE
    networks all asynchronous executions are possible, but executions with
    extremely long delays are less probable. In contrast to ABD networks, ABE
    networks cannot be synchronised efficiently.
