Decidability of Class-Based Knowledge Representation Formalisms - De Giacomo (1995)   (11 citations)  (Correct)

....deterministic, i.e. it leads to at most one state. It is easy to see that this possibility allows one to impose the so called global determinism too, i.e. that all runs of a given atomic program or the converse of an atomic program, are deterministic. Therefore, DIF subsumes the logic studied in [131], called Converse Deterministic PDL, where atomic programs, not their converse, are (globally) deterministic. 3.2 Reasoning in CIF and DIF The decidability and complexity of both satisfiability of CIF concepts and logical implication in CIF TBoxes can be derived immediately by exploiting the ....

....since DIF subsumes Converse Deterministic PDL, also formulae of that logic can be encoded in DI. This fact gives us an optimal procedure to decide the satisfiability of Converse Deterministic PDL formulae that does not rely on techniques based on automata on infinite structures as those in [129, 131]. Observe also that the mapping fl can be easily restricted to encode Deterministic PDL formulae in PDL. Though, in this simpler case there is no need of a sophisticated technique, as the one above, to build a model of a Deterministic PDL formula from its PDL counterpart, a standard filtration ....

....study both the expressive power and the computational complexity of subsumption and satisfiability for TBoxes expressed in ALC (no fixpoint constructs) that allow for mutually recursive definitions. To this end, a concept language is defined that corresponds to a variant of the modal mu calculus ([130]) in which mutual fixpoints are allowed but some restrictions on nested fixpoints are enforced. It is well known that mutual fixpoints can be re expressed by means of nested ones (see, for example, 33, 109] As a consequence of this observation it follows that both logics introduced in this ....

It can be shown, following the lines of the proof in [15] for converse deterministic PDL, that ALCFI reg enjoys the tree model property, i.e. every satis able concept has a model that has the structure of a (possibly in nite) tree with branching degree linearly bounded by the size of the concept. More precisely, we have the following result. Theorem ....

....of project Metodi Formali per la Sicurezza (MEFISTO) Automata on in nite words and trees turned out to be very useful for those areas of computer science where nonterminating computations are studied. They give a unifying paradigm to specify, verify, and synthesize nonterminating systems [7, 15, 16]. A system speci cation can be translated to an automaton, and thus, questions about systems and their speci cations are reduced to decision problems in the automata theory. For example, the satis ability of a speci cation and the correctness of a system with respect to its speci cation can ....

The non emptiness problem for RTA is NP complete [12, 5] Given a TA A = hQ; Q 0 ; F i, we de ne the size of A, denoted by Size(A) as the sum of the sizes of Q, and F .

Combining Deduction and Model Checking into Tableaux and.. - De Giacomo, Massacci (1998)   (8 citations)  (Correct)

....of the tableaux method (naively NEXPTIME) into an EXPTIME algorithm. 1 Introduction Propositional Dynamic Logics (PDLs) are modal logics introduced in [10] to model the evolution of the computation process by describing the properties of states reached by programs during their execution [15, 24, 27]. Over the years, PDLs have been proved to be a valuable formal tool in Computer Science, Logic, Computational Linguistics, and Artificial Intelligence far beyond their original use for program verification (e.g. 4, 12, 14, 15, 24, 23] In this paper we focus on Converse PDL (CPDL) 10] ....

.... cases inference procedures have been successfully developed for PDL, but their extension to CPDL has proved to be a difficult task and unsuccessful till now (to the best of our knowledge) To be precise, inference procedures based on model enumeration [10, 21] or on automata on infinite trees [27] have been extended to converse of programs. Yet, these procedures are more suited for proving theoretical results than for being used in applications. Tableaux procedures for PDL [20, 22] which are typically simpler in practice, have never been extended. In [20] Pratt says We do not have a ....

....automata. After the works of B uchi and Rabin [B uc62,Rab69] various classes of automata turned out to be well suited to solve decision procedures for logical problems, including some for temporal logics (see e.g. VW94,Var97,KVW00] for the calculus and its fragments (see e.g. EJ99,SE89,VW86,EJS01,Var98] and for description logics (see e.g. CDGL99,CGL02] to quote three families of logics. For instance, translating formulae in temporal logics to automata is a standard approach for implementing model checking, see e.g. the model checking tool SPIN [Hol97] More recently, such ....

Indeed, relative information logics contain features that are not traditionally present in most logics of programs (e.g. the presence of nominals on ....
