We present a decidable class of first-order formulas in the general theory of stable models that can be instantiated even in the presence of function constants. The notion of an ...
Development and maintenance of a case-base is known to be one of the most difficult problems in real-world application of case-based diagnosis systems. The complexity of large tech...
A number of logic programming languages based on Linear Logic [3] have been proposed. However, the implementation techniques proposed for these languages have relied heavily on th...

Using a glass-box theory of finite domain constraints, FD, we show how the entailment of user-defined constraints can be expressed by antimonotone FD constraints. We also provide a...
The unfold/fold transformation system defined by Tamaki and Sato was meant for definite programs. It transforms a program into an equivalent one in the sense of both the least tter...
