Abstract: We introduce global SLS-resolution, a procedural semantics for well-founded negation as defined by Van Gelder, Ross and Schlipf. Global SLS-resolution extends Przymusinski 's SLS-resolution, and may be applied to all programs, whether locally stratified or not. 1 Global SLS-resolution is defined in terms of global trees, a new data structure representing the dependence of goals on derived negative subgoals. We prove that global SLS-resolution is sound with respect to the well-founded semantics, ... (Update)

.... semantics [33] Two representative methods were then proposed for topdown evaluation of such a new semantics: Global SLS resolution [18, 22] and SLG resolution [6, 7] Global SLS resolution is a direct extension of SLDNF resolution. It overcomes the semantic anomalies of...
