Abstract. Many NP-complete problems can be encoded in the answer set semantics of logic programs in a very concise way, where the encoding reflects the typical “guess and check...
Spatial logics have been used to describe properties of treelike structures (Ambient Logic) and in a Hoare style to reason about dynamic updates of heap-like structures (Separatio...
In complex systems, like robot plants, applications are built on top of a set of components, or devices. Each of them has particular individual constraints, and there are also log...
Abstract. We introduce model-checking games that allow local secondorder power on sets of independent transitions in the underlying partial order models where the games are played....
We study relations on trees defined by first-order constraints over a vocabulary that includes the tree extension relation Ì Ì ¼, holding if and only if every branch of Ì ex...
