Many popular ontology languages are based on (subsets of) first-order predicate logic, with classes represented by unary predicates and properties by binary predicates. Specificall...
Abstract-- In this paper we present the communication architecture of the DALI Logic Programming Agent-Oriented language and we discuss its semantics. We have designed a meta-level...
We describe a new algorithm for proving temporal properties expressed in LTL of infinite-state programs. Our approach takes advantage of the fact that LTL properties can often be...
We study the type checking and type inference problems for intuitionistic linear logic: given a System F typed λ-term, (i) for an alleged linear logic type, determine whether the...
Narrowing-driven partial evaluation is a powerful technique for the specialization of (first-order) functional and functional logic programs. However, although it gives good resu...
