To respond to these queries, the Challenger C make a list of tuples < [ID.sub.i], Q.sub.i], [b.sub.i], coini >, called the [H.sub.1.sup.LIST] Until the adversary A makes queries to the oracle, [H.sub.1.sup.LIST] is initially empty.
To take such a decision, it reads the tuples representing the classifications made by the Updater and Status agents, and implements the behaviour summarized by Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3 reported in Section 4.
An example of translation of Datalog to C++ based on a method that "pushes" derived tuples immediately to places where they are used was provided by [Brass, 2017].
Following the example of the temperature given above in order to describe the PDF, we can consider the input images as being two sets of random tuples. We say tuples and not variables, because these tuples are the representation of each pixel of the image which we will consider, for transparent use, to be N-dimensional.
