Thermochemistry of the Gaseous Vanadium Chlorides VCl, VCl2, VCl3, and VCl4
Gaseous equilibria in the V−Ag−Cl system were studied at elevated temperatures by effusion-beam mass spectrometry, where the pertinent species were generated by reaction of Cl2(g) with V + Ag granules…

Efficient Message Passing and Propagation of Simple Temporal Constraints: Results on Semi-Structured Networks
We first show that for an STN, these messages can be represented compactly as sub-STNs. We then present an efficient message passing scheme for computing the minimal constraints of an…
