A New Equational Foundation for the Fluent Calculus
Abstract. A new equational foundation is presented for the Fluent Calculus, an established predicate calculus formalism for reasoning about actions. We discuss limitations of the e...

Axiomatizing Causal Reasoning
Causal models defined in terms of a collection of equations, as defined by Pearl, are axiomatized here. Axiomatizations are provided for three successively more general classes of...

Model Simplification by Asymptotic Order of Magnitude Reasoning
One of the hardest problems in reasoning about a physical system is finding an approximate model that is mathematically tractable and yet captures the essence of the problem. Appr...
