We give a denotational semantics to a type and effect system tracking reading and writing to global variables holding values that may include higher-order effectful functions. Re...

Recent research in answer-set programming (ASP) is concerned with the problem of finding faithful transformations of logic programs under the stable semantics. This is in particul...

In this paper, we propose a new constructive characterization of those semantics for disjunctive logic programs which are extensions of the well-founded semantics for normal progra...
We introduce a persistentfunctional languagecalled PFL which adapts functional programming to the area of deductive databases,much as logic-based deductive databaselanguagesadapt ...
As a first step in the larger project of charting the ontology of computer programs, we pose three central questions: (1) Can programs, hardware, and metaprograms be organized into...
