We present the Hyper system that implements a new approach to knowledge compilation, where function-free rst-order acyclic Horn theories are transformed to propositional logic. The compilation method integrates techniques from deductive databases (relevance reasoning) and theory transformation via unfold/fold transformations, to obtain a compact propositional representation.

It is not without reason that the question of man, of who he is, arises in situations where, i...

We have examined the role of the uvrC gene in UV excision repair by studying incision, excision, repair synthesis, and DNA strand reformation in Escherichia coli mutants made permeable to nucleoside triphosphates by toluene treatment. After irradiation, incisions occur normally in uvrC cells in the presence of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a ligase-blocking agent, but cannot be detected ot...

As Richard Stewart (1975) noted thirty-five years ago, administrative law “is undergoing a fundamental transformation.” Following Stewart, the modern explanation in legal scholarship of the transformation is that federal judges came to the rescue of the administrative state, actively interven...
