Extending Well-Founded Semantics with Clark’s Completion for Disjunctive Logic Programs
January 2018 • Juan Carlos Nieves, Mauricio Osorio
In this paper, we introduce new semantics (that we call D3-WFS-DCOMP) and compare it with the stable semantics (STABLE). For normal programs, this semantics is based on suitable integration of the well-founded semantics (WFS) and the Clark’s completion. D3-WFS-DCOM has the following appealing properties: First, it agrees with STABLE in the sense that it never defines a nonminimal model or a nonminimal supported model. Second, for normal programs it extends WFS. Third, every stable model of a disjunctive program<mm…
