Integrating Logic Programming and Production Systems in Abductive Logic Programming Agents
In this paper we argue the case for integrating the distinctive functionalities of logic programs and production systems within an abductive logic programming agent framework. In this framework, logic programs function as an agent’s beliefs and production rules function as the agent’s goals. The semantics and proof procedures are based on abductive logic programming, in which logic programs are integrated with integrity constraints that behave like production rules. Similarly to production systems, the proof procedure is an operational semantics, which manipulates the current state of a database, which is modified by actions implemented by destructive assignment. The semantics can be viewed as generating a model, based on the sequence of database states and logic program, which makes the production rules true.
