We prove that every rational language of words indexed by linear orderings is definable in monadic second-order logic. We also show that the converse is true for the class of langu...
The study of finite automata and regular languages is a privileged meeting point of algebra and logic. Since the work of Büchi, regular languages have been classified according ...
In this sketchy paper we introduce a logical reconstruction of the RDF family of languages and the OWL-DL family of languages. We prove that our logical framework is equivalent to ...
This paper presents a new programming language named SPARCL that has four major elements: it is a visual language, it is a logic programming language, it relies on sets to organiz...
Language is primarily a physical, and more particularly a biological phenomenon. To say that it is primarily so is to say that that is how, in the first instance, it presents itse...
