The development of Logic Programming and Defeasible Argumentation lead to Defeasible Logic Programming. Its core resides in the characterization of the warrant procedure. Defeasib...
— In Java, method implementations are chosen at runtime by late-binding with respect to the runtime class of just the receiver argument. However, in order to simplify many progra...
We introduce tractable classes of VCSP instances based on convex cost functions. Firstly, we show that the class of VCSP instances satisfying the hierarchically nested convexity pr...
Order-sorted logic has been formalized as first-order logic with sorted terms where sorts are ordered to build a hierarchy (called a sort-hierarchy). These sorted logics lead to u...
We address the problem of obtaining good variable orderings for the BDD representation of a system of interacting finite state machines (FSMs). Orderings are derived from the comm...
