ABSTRACT
For sharpness in presentation, and for improved reader comprehension, this paper draws frequent contrasts to George H. Mealy's pleasingly-reasoned and useful paper by the title of “Another Look at Data.” 1Since it is assumed that the reader has access to that paper, no summary of it is presented here, but from time to time, some of George H. Mealy's definitions and positions will be paraphrased.
This is not to suggest that others have not made contributions. On the contrary, many persons have addressed themselves to the problem of data organization within the confines of information retrieval (see for instance, 2,3), and to the organization of files (see for instance, 4,5,6,7).

Visibly pushdown transducers with look-ahead
SOFSEM'12: Proceedings of the 38th international conference on Current Trends in Theory and Practice of Computer ScienceVisibly Pushdown Transducers (VPT) form a subclass of pushdown transducers. In this paper, we investigate the extension of VPT with visibly pushdown look-ahead (VPTla ). Their transitions are guarded by visibly pushdown automata that can check whether ...
Deeper connections between LTL and alternating automata
CIAA'05: Proceedings of the 10th international conference on Implementation and Application of AutomataIt is known that Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) has the same expressive power as alternating 1-weak automata (A1W automata, also called alternating linear automata or very weak alternating automata). A translation of LTL formulae into a language equivalent ...
