Proceedings of the Fifth International Conference and Symposium
These two volumes collect papers presented at the first joint meeting of the two principal logic programming conferences, held in August of 1988. The more than fifty contributions cover all aspects of the field, including applications (particularly those that exploit the unique character of logic programming), the role of logic programming in artificial intelligence, deductive databases, relations to other computational paradigms, language issues, methodology, implementations on sequential and parallel architectures, and theory.Logic Programming is included in the Logic Programming series Research Reports and Notes, edited by Ehud Shapiro.

This is the latest volume in a series which has provided coverage of the seminal advances in machine intelligence over the past two decades. It marks a turning point in the series' direction, one that will focus on the vital problem of scientific reasoning and the application of artificial intelligence to analyzing the sometimes staggering quantities of data generated in fields from biotechnology to planetary physics. The book includes contributions from internationally recognized experts who offer their insights on important practical and theoretical developments. It also includes an extensive bibliography that will serve as a valuable guide to the literature.
admissibility of arguments , which arises very commonly in legal reasoning , does not seem directly amenable to a probabilistic approach either . Our approach is to use the meta - logical capabilities of Prolog and the certainty space ...
One was hinted at in the panel discussion on legal reasoning , and it involves situations where considerations of the burden of proof are important ; it seems that in Anglo - Saxon jurisprudence guilty verdicts must be proved more ...
Equally , it must be admitted that many kinds of reasoning which hardly approximate to “ calculation ” are capable of producing agreement and capable of bearing most of the logical burdens put upon them . Legal reasoning , for example ...
Even the best law schools are very weak in teaching argument analysis ; they expect the student to extract it from case studies ... movement - the so - called New Rhetoric - aimed directly at a semi - soft analysis of legal reasoning .
After an extensive study of the relationship between logic and legal reasoning , the jurist Julius Stone concluded : " The long drawn out hope of handling all human problems by formal reasoning has come to little .
"In this book, Sarah E. Chinn pulls together what seems to be opposite discourses--the information-driven languages of law and medicine and the subjective logics of racism--to examine how racial identity has been constructed in the United States over the past century. She examines a range of primary social case studies such as the American Red Cross' lamentable decision to segregate the blood of black and white donors during World War II, and its ramifications for American culture, and more recent examples that reveal the racist nature of criminology, such as the recent trial of O.J. Simpson. Among several key American literary texts, she looks at Mark Twain's Pudd'nhead Wilson, a novel whose plot turns on issues of racial identity and which was written at a time when scientific and popular interest in evidence of the body, such as fingerprinting, was at a peak"--Publisher's description.
