Recently, considerable advances have been made in the (on-line) control of logic program specialisation. A clear conceptual distinction has been established between local and glob...
agent-oriented system. We show the complexity to be linear time for one of these logics and polynomial time for another, thus providing encouraging results with respect to the prac...
