Short description:

The course introduces logic as a method for computational problem solving. It introduces multiple practical logics and logic based systems such as logic programs, modal logics, description logics and ontologies, multi context systems, etc. with readily available reasoners.

Offered in these study programs: Compulsory elective for the Master program in Applied Informatics

Recommendations: none
