We provide a logical speci cation of set predicates ndall and bagof of Prolog. The speci cation is given in proof theoretic terms, and pertains to any SLD resolution based language...
Following the ideas of the Remote Procedure Call model, we have developed a logic programming counterpart, naturally called Prolog Remote Predicate Call (Prolog RPC) [1]. The Prol...
Abstract. We implement Groenendijk and Stokhof's partition semantics of questions in a simple question answering algorithm. The algorithm is sound, complete, and based on tabl...
We develop kernels for measuring the similarity between relational instances using background knowledge expressed in first-order logic. The method allows us to bridge the gap betw...
Abstract. Subtyping tends to undermine the effects of parametric polymorphism as far as the static detection of type errors is concerned. Starting with this observation we present...
