Knowledge representation and reasoning in logic programming constitute a core area of artificial intelligence that formalises how information is symbolically encoded and manipulated. This field ...

Picat is a new logic-based programming language. In many ways, Picat is similar to Prolog, especially B-Prolog, but it has functions in addition to predicates, pattern-matching instead of unification ...

Rewriting logic is a versatile and expressive framework that unifies the specification of concurrent systems with formal reasoning about their behaviour. It allows researchers and practitioners to ...

In part one of this series, we looked at the PLC’s internal architecture, briefly discussed Ladder Logic programming, Human-Machine Interfaces, advantages of the PLC’s ability to react consistently ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract First, we describe a psychological experiment in which the participants were asked to determine whether sentences of first-order logic were ...

For PLC programming, U.S control engineers and technicians turn typically to ladder logic, a programming technique that’s been around since the birth of programmable logic controllers, or PLCs, in the ...

The debate between programming languages revolves around the necessity of sticking to ladder logic for ease of troubleshooting versus adopting higher-level languages for enhanced functionality and ...
