Kleene’s well-known strong three-valued logic is shown to be one of a family of logics with similar mathematical properties. These logics are produced by an intuitively natural construction. The resulting logics have direct relationships with bilattices. In addition they possess mathematical features that lend themselves well to semantical constructions based on fixpoint procedures, as in logic...

Even though it is not very often admitted, partial functions do play a signiicant role in many practical applications of deduction systems. Kleene has already given a semantic account of partial functions using a three-valued logic decades ago, but there has not been a satisfactory mechanization. Recent years have seen a thorough investigation of the framework of many-valued truth-functional lo...

Feature structures are informational elements that have been used in several linguistic theories and in computational systems for natural-language processing. A logicaJ calculus has been developed and used as a description language for feature structures. In the present work, a framework in three-valued logic is suggested for defining the semantics of a feature structure description language, a...

We introduce a family of partial stable model semantics for logic programs with arbitrary aggregate relations. The semantics are parametrized by the interpretation of aggregate relations in three-valued logic. Any semantics in this family satisfies two important properties: (i) it extends the partial stable semantics for normal logic programs and (ii) total stable models are always minimal. We ...

The coincidence of the declarative and procedural interpretations of logic programs does not apply to Prolog programs, due to the depth-rst left-to-right evaluation strategy of Prolog interpreters. We propose a semantics for Prolog programs based on a four-valued logic. The semantics is based on a new concept of completion analogous to Clark's and it enjoys the nice properties of the declarativ...

We propose a combination of Kleene’s three-valued logic and ACP process algebra via the guarded command construct. We present an operational semantics in SOS-style, and a completeness result.  1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
