We propose a setting in which the search for a proof of B or a refutation of B (a proof of ¬B) can be carried out simultaneously: this is in contrast to the usual approach in aut...

We study the classes of B¨uchi and Rabin automatic structures. For B¨uchi (Rabin) automatic structures their domains consist of infinite strings (trees), and the basic relation...
