Abstract
An account of lower and upper integration is given. It is constructive in the sense of geometric logic. If the integrand takes its values in the nonβnegative lower reals, then its lower integral with respect to a valuation is a lower real. If the integrand takes its values in the nonβnegative upper reals, then its upper integral with respect to a covaluation and with domain of integration bounded by a compact subspace is an upper real. Spaces of valuations and of covaluations are defined.
Riemann and Choquet integrals can be calculated in terms of these lower and upper integrals. (Β© 2008 WILEYβVCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Most engineering problems are solved by means of numerical methods that are able to provide only approximate solutions, for which it would be extremely useful to have efficient error estimators. Upper and lower bounds for quantities of integral character, like the stored magnetic energy or the ohmi
We consider the exploration of random digraphs. We give upper and lower bounds for the expected number of edges traversed during an exploration. This result implies a lower bound for the expected running time of a wide class of algorithms, e.g., breadth-first-search, depth-first-search, and algorith
