Logic Programming: First Russian Conference on Logic Programming, Irkutsk, Russia, September 14-18, 1990. Second Russian Conference on Logic Programmi [Paperback]

This volume contains the proceedings of two Russianconferences on logic programming, held in 1990 in Irkutskand in 1991 in St. Petersburg. The aim of the conferenceswas to bring together researchers from the Russian and theinternational logic programming communities. Topics coveredin the volume include: logic programming, automated theoremproving, non-monotonic reasoning, applications ofmathematical logic to computer science, deductivedatabases,implementation of declarative concepts, and programming innon-classical logics.This is the first volume to represent activity in the fieldof logic programming in the countries of the former SovietUnion.Real-time memory management for Prolog.- A process semantics of logic programs.- Logical operational semantics of Parlog Part II: Or-Parallelism.- WAM algebrasA mathematical study of implementation Part 2.- Abdugtive systems for non-monotonig reasoning.- Properties of algorithmic operators.- Deep logic program transformation using abstract interpretation.- Objects in a logic programming framework.- Integrity verification in knowledge bases.- On procedural semantics of metalevel negation.- Probabilistic logic programs and their semantics.- Implementation of Prolog as binary definite programs.- Prolog semantics for measuring space consumption.- Or-parallel Prolog with heuristic task distribution.- A WAM compilation scheme.- Safe positive induction in the programming logic TK.- Wam specification for parallel execution on SIMD computer.- On abstracting the procedural behaviour of logic programs.- Treating enhanced entity relationship models in a declarative style.- Processing of ground regular terms in Prolog.- Compiling Flang.- FIDO: Finite domain consistency techniques in logic programming.- A constructive logic approach to database theory.- Abstract syntax and logic programming.- Deduction search with generalized terms.- A simple transformation from Prolog-written metalevel interpreters into compilers lƒ)
