The paper presents the main characteristics and a preliminary implementation of a novel computational framework named CompLog. Inspired by probabilistic programming systems like ProbLog, CompLog builds upon the inferential mechanisms…
The Logic Programming through Prolog has been widely used for supply persistence in many systems that need store knowledge. Some implementations of Prolog Programming Language used for supply persistence have bidirectional interfaces with…
Large language models (LLMs) require well-crafted prompts for effective use. Prompt engineering, the process of designing prompts, is challenging, particularly for non-experts who are less familiar with AI technologies. While researchers…
Environments for systematic construction of logic programs are needed in the academy as well as in the industry. Such environments should support well defined construction methods and should be able to be extended and interact with other…
Adding versatile interactions to goals and queries in logic programming is an essential task. Unfortunately, existing logic languages can take input from the user only via the $read$ construct. We propose to add a new interactive goal to…
Logic programming is a declarative programming paradigm. Programming language Prolog makes logic programming possible, at least to a substantial extent. However the Prolog debugger works solely in terms of the operational semantics. So it…
A logic program is an executable specification. For example, merge sort in pure Prolog is a logical formula, yet shows creditable performance on long linked lists. But such executable specifications are a compromise: the logic is distorted…
In this paper, we present the SimDoc system, a simplification model considering simplicity, readability, and discourse aspects, such as coherence. In the past decade, the progress of the Text Simplification (TS) field has been mostly shown…
PyLog is a minimal experimental proof assistant based on linearised natural deduction for intuitionistic and classical first-order logic extended with a comprehension operator. PyLog is interesting as a tool to be used in conjunction with…
This paper illustrates how a Prolog program, using chronological backtracking to find a solution in some search space, can be enhanced to perform intelligent backtracking. The enhancement crucially relies on the impurity of Prolog that…
To appear in Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP). Several Prolog interpreters are based on the Warren Abstract Machine (WAM), an elegant model to compile Prolog programs. In order to improve the performance several strategies…
Development of distributed systems is a difficult task. Declarative programming techniques hold a promising potential for effectively supporting programmer in this challenge. While Datalog-based languages have been actively explored for…
This paper presents an environment for solving Prolog problems which has been implemented as a module for the virtual laboratory VILAB. During the problem solving processes the learners get fast adaptive feedback. As a result analysing the…
Documentation enables sharing knowledge between the developers of a technology and its users. Creating quality documents, however, is challenging: Documents must satisfy the needs of a large audience without being overwhelming for…
Making a Prolog program more efficient by transforming its source code, without changing its operational semantics, is not an obvious task. It requires the user to have a clear understanding of how the Prolog compiler works, and in…
Concolic testing mixes symbolic and concrete execution to generate test cases covering paths effectively. Its benefits have been demonstrated for more than 15 years to test imperative programs. Other programming paradigms, like logic…
Large Language Models for Code (or code LLMs) are increasingly gaining popularity and capabilities, offering a wide array of functionalities such as code completion, code generation, code summarization, test generation, code translation,…
Large language models (LLMs) are remarkably good at writing code. A particularly valuable case of human-LLM collaboration is code-based UI prototyping, a method for creating interactive prototypes that allows users to view and fully engage…
Recent progress in logic programming (e.g., the development of the Answer Set Programming paradigm) has made it possible to teach it to general undergraduate and even high school students. Given the limited exposure of these students to…
Large language models (LLMs) bear great potential for automating tedious development tasks such as creating and maintaining code documentation. However, it is unclear to what extent developers can effectively prompt LLMs to create concise…
