A Kripke Semantics is defined for a higher-order logic programming language with constraints, based on Church’s Theory of Types and a generic constraint formalism. Our syntactic...
We consider nonsmooth multiobjective fractional programming problems with inequality and equality constraints. We establish the necessary and sufficient optimality conditions under...
We investigate a generalization of weight-constraint programs with stable semantics, as implemented in the ASP solver smodels. Our programs admit atoms of the form X, F where X is ...
Abstract. We examine the maintenance of data consistency in the presence of application-database interactions. Currently, a programmer must insert explicit checks to ensure that da...
The elastic-mode formulation of the problem of minimizing a nonlinear function subject to equilibrium constraints has appealing local properties in that, for a finite value of the...
