Abstract: Interoperability for information systems remains a challenge both at the semantic and organisational levels. The original three-level architecture for local databases nee...
This paper presents a specifically database-inspired approach (called DOGMA) for engineering formal ontologies, implemented as shared resources used to express agreed formal semant...
BDDs and their algorithms implement a decision procedure for Quanti ed Propositional Logic. BDDs are a kind of acyclic automata. Unrestricted automata (recognizing unbounded string...
Abstract. Logic Programs with Annotated Disjunctions (LPADs) allow to express probabilistic information in logic programming. The semantics of an LPAD is given in terms of the well...
