Produktbeschreibung

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed and revised post-workshop proceedings of two international meetings devoted to deductive databases and logic programming.
The technical papers presenting original research results were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the present book, together with several survey articles summarizing the state of the art in the area. Thus, the book is the ultimate reference for anybody interested in the theory and application of deductive databases and logic programming.
