Negation and minimality in non-Horn databases

Abstract

In this work we generalize the semantics for negation in logic programs, putting together the constructive nature of the rule-based deductive database with the syntax-independence of the closed-world reasoning rules. These generalized semantics are shown to be a well-motivated and well-founded alternative to closed-world assumptions since they enjoy nice semantic and computational properties.
