Completion procedures, originated from the seminal work of Knuth and Bendix, are wellknown as procedures for generating confluent rewrite systems, i.e. decision procedures for al ...
Although it seems obvious that decision making is a contextual task, papers dealing with decision making tackle rarely the problem of contextual information management. After a bri...
This paper describes a class of decision procedures that we have found useful for efficient, domain-specific deductive synthesis, and a method for integrating this type of procedur...
We show how a well-known superposition-based inference system for first-order equational logic can be used almost directly as a decision procedure for various theories including l...
We present a resolution-based decision procedure for the description logic SHOIQ--the logic underlying the Semantic Web ontology language OWL-DL. Our procedure is goal-oriented, an...
