We consider the frame problem, that is, char acterizing the assumption that properties tend to persist over time. We show that there are at least three distinct assumptions that...
In this paper we attempt to give an account of reasoning with legal cases contextualised within a general theory of persuasion in practical reasoning. We begin by presenting our g...

Abstract. Automata-based decision procedures commonly achieve optimal complexity bounds. However, in practice, they are often outperformed by sub-optimal (but more local-search bas...
Abstract. We extend the setting of Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) by introducing a theory of costs C, where it is possible to model and reason about resource consumption and ...
Proofs of equalities may be built from assumptions using proof rules for reflexivity, symmetry, and transitivity. Reflexivity is an axiom proving x=x for any x; symmetry is a 1-p...
