Closed world reasoning is a common nonmonotonic technique that allows for dealing with negative information in knowledge and data bases. We present a detailed analysis of the comp...
We present a general framework for defining nonmonotonic systems based on the notion of preferred maximal consistent subsets of the premises. This framework subsumes David Poole...
FLORA-2 is an advanced knowledge representation system that integrates F-logic, HiLog, and Transaction Logic. In this paper we give an overview of the theoretical foundations of th...
