In this article, we discuss some issues related to the intuitions of defeasible reasoning, in particular floating conclusions, reinstatement, and zombie paths. Defeasible logic serves as the formal basis for our analysis. We also make some comments on the comparison between defeasible logics and the

Abduction is regarded as the inference process that goes from observations to explanations within a more general context or theoretical framework. There are good characterizations of abduction of surprising observations in monotonic theories. Also, in normal logic programs there are a tight relation
In this paper the framework DESIRE for the design of compositional reasoning systems and multi-agent systems was applied to build a generic nonmonotonic reasoning system. The outcome is a general reasoning system that can be used to model different nonmonotonic reasoning formalisms and that can be e
