The concept of a stable model provided a declarative semantics for Prolog programs with negation as failure and became a starting point for the development of answer set programmi...
We study strictly level-decreasing logic programs (sld-programs) as defined earlier by the present authors. It will be seen that sld-programs, unlike most other classes of logic p...
The definition of a stable model has provided a declarative semantics for Prolog programs with negation as failure and has led to the development of answer set programming. In th...
One of the attractive features of the Constraint Handling Rules (CHR) programming language is its declarative semantics where rules are read as formulae in first-order predicate l...
Existing action calculi provide rich, declarative formalisms for reasoning about actions. BDI-based programming languages like AgentSpeak, on the other hand, are procedural and ge...
The stable semantics has become a prime candidate for knowledge representation and reasoning. The rules associated with propositional logic programs and the stable semantics are no...
With the increasing importance of the World Wide Web as an information source, there is a growing interest for integration of Web and database technology. Several Web query languag...
Abstract. This paper proposes a tool to support reasoning about (partial) correctness of constraint logic programs. The tool infers a speci cation that approximates the semantics o...
