The paper presents a calculus based on resolution for credulous reasoning in Answer Set Programming. The new approach allows a top-down and goal directed resolution, in the same s...
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...
In classical two-stage stochastic programming the expected value of the total costs is minimized. Recently, mean-risk models - studied in mathematical finance for several decades -...
This paper extends the well-known technique of slicing to synchronous reactive programs. Synchronous languages exemplified by Esterel, Lustre, Signal and Argos, novel model of exe...
We consider the class of database programs and address the problem of minimizing the cost of their exchanges with the database server. This cost partly consists of query execution...
