Deduction chains represent a syntactic and in a certain sense constructive method for proving completeness of a formal system. Given a formula ฯ, the deduction chains of ฯ are built up by systematically decomposing ฯ into its subformulae. In the case where ฯ is a valid formula, the decomposition yie
Conditional knowledge bases have been proposed as belief bases that include defeasible rules (also called defaults) of the form "ฯ โ ฯ", which informally read as "generally, if ฯ then ฯ". Such rules may have exceptions, which can be handled in different ways. A number of entailment semantics for con
Distributed models for deduction allow for more powerful proof systems, but also lead to new problems. In particular, the analysis of the deduction process becomes harder, as a number of largely independent agents may contribute to the proof. In a system including cooperating agents, timing consider
