The paper [1] purports to present a classification of the general failure sets of logic programs and a simple proof of the theorem on the soundness and completeness of the negation-as-failure rule. In this note we clarify some conflicting terminology between [1] and the papers [2, 3] to which it pre

✦ Synopsis
This note discusses the results of the compilational approach of equational logic programming developed by Van Emden and Yukawa, and compares them with similar results obtained by Bosco et al. and by Fribourg. We show that Van Emden and Yukawa's completeness result contains an inaccuracy, and we suggest how to correct it.

We show the completeness of an extension of SLD-resolution to the equational setting. This proves a conjecture of Laurent Fribourg and shows the completeness of an implementation of his. It is the first completeness result for superposition of equational Horn clauses which reduces to SLD resolution
We propose a method of doing logic programming on a Hopfield neural network. Optimization of logical consistency is carried out by the network after the connection strengths are defined from the logic program; the network relaxes to neural states corresponding to a valid (or near-valid) interpretati
Parallel logic programming (PLP) systems are sophisticated examples of symbolic computing systems. PLP systems address problems such as allocating dynamic memory, scheduling irregular computations, and managing different types of implicit parallelism. Most PLP systems have been developed for busbase
