We present an empirical analysis of optimization techniques devised to speed up the so-called TBox classification supported by description logic systems which have to deal with ve...
ko et al. have recently proposed an abstract framework for default reasoning. Besides capturing most existing formalisms and proving that their standard semantics all coincide, th...
Abstract. The management of qualitative spatial information is an important research area in computer science and AI. Modal logic provides a natural framework for the formalization...

Temporal reasoning is widely used within both Computer Science and A.I. However, the underlying complexity of temporal proof in discrete temporal logics has led to the use of simp...
Abstract. The preferential and rational consequence relations first studied by Lehmann and colleagues play a central role in non-monotonic reasoning, not least because they provid...
