We formally characterize alternating fixed points of boolean equation systems as models of (propositional) normal logic programs. To this end, we introduce the notion of a preferr...

Abstract. Recently, local logics for Mazurkiewicz traces are of increasing interest. This is mainly due to the fact that the satisfiability problem has the same complexity as in t...
We define three composition and structuring concepts which reflect frequently used refinements of ASMs and integrate standard structuring constructs into the global state based ...
The ordered conjecture states that least fixed-point logic LFP is strictly more expressive than first-order logic FO on every infinite class of ordered finite structures. It has b...
: The paper is concerned with the effective and efficient processing of spatiotemporal selection queries under varying degrees of approximation. Such queries may employ operators l...
