In this paper, we propose a new constructive characterization of those semantics for disjunctive logic programs which are extensions of the well-founded semantics for normal progra...
We introduce a persistentfunctional languagecalled PFL which adapts functional programming to the area of deductive databases,much as logic-based deductive databaselanguagesadapt ...
