Abstract. Both in classical logic and in Answer Set Programming, inconsistency is characterized by non existence of a model. Whereas every formula is a theorem for inconsistent set...
Partial functions and operators are used extensively in the formal development of programs and thus development methods have to clarify how to reason about them. There are a numbe...
This paper presents Abacus, a service-oriented programming language designed for the development of grid applications. Abacus considers that all the grid resources constitute a un...
We propose a novel approach to proving the termination of heapmanipulating programs, which combines separation logic with cyclic proof within a Hoare-style proof system. Judgement...

Abstract. A strong (L) logic programming language ([14, 15]) is given by two subclasses of formulas (programs and goals) of the underlying logic L, provided that: firstly, any pro...
