In bitemporal databases, current facts and transaction states are modelled using a special value to represent the current time (such as a minimum or maximum timestamp or NULL). Pr...
We present a decidable class of first-order formulas in the general theory of stable models that can be instantiated even in the presence of function constants. The notion of an ...
Answer-set programming (ASP) solvers must handle difficult computational problems that are NP-hard. These solvers are in the worst case exponential and their scope of applicabilit...

This paper presents an EMG diagnostic Knowledge Based System, that is the first application of our methodology for reasoning with causal-functional (meta-)models. Despite past diff...
: In this paper we explain how we have integrated the functionalities of a constraint management system and a temporal data base system to enable a model-based control of systems t...
