This kind of logic programming is particularly useful for data integration with possibly incomplete and inconsistent information. We define an ontological encapsulation of the epistemic many-valued logic programs with negation, based on this bilattice, into 2-valued meta logic programs. Obtained 2-valued logic semantically reflects original epistemic many-valued logic, and can be used in order to define many-valued logic entailment and inference closure for many-valued truth assignments.","PeriodicalId":340578,"journal":{"name":"35th International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic (ISMVL'05)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115372691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is known from (A. Mishchenko et al., 2001) that the MIN and MAX bi-decomposition leads in general to small multi-level circuits, well understandable for humans. Unfortunately, there does not exist a MIN or MAX bi-decomposition for each multi-valued function. In this paper we close this gap by the MAX-MIN multi-decomposition. Experimental results show that our complete decomposition of a set of benchmarks requires approximately the same sum of gates and literals as the known incomplete approach and the number of logic levels could even be reduced in average by 20 percent.","PeriodicalId":340578,"journal":{"name":"35th International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic (ISMVL'05)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121104950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the near-term limits are not truly fundamental, and may be avoided by making radical changes to the physical and logical architecture of computers. In particular, certain assumed limits to the energy efficiency of computers have never been rigorously proven, and may be circumvented using physical mechanisms that recover and reuse signal energies with efficiency approaching 100%. However, this concept, called reversible computing, imposes tight constraints on the design of the machine at all levels from physics to algorithms. We review the physical and architectural requirements that must be met if real machines are to break through the barriers preventing further progress, and approach the true fundamental physical limits to computing.","PeriodicalId":340578,"journal":{"name":"35th International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic (ISMVL'05)","volume":"86 8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127993160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A protocol suitable for intra-chip data transfer is proposed to make a router as simple as possible. The total number of packets in a micronetwork can be reduced by multiplexing two binary packets into a single multiple-valued packet, which makes the micronetwork throughput very high. The multiplexing can be realized by liner summation of two packets in current-mode logic. Moreover, multiple-valued source-coupled logic is introduced in the router circuit. Thus, we can design the very high-speed micronetwork using current-mode multiple-valued logic.","PeriodicalId":340578,"journal":{"name":"35th International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic (ISMVL'05)","volume":"131 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122763052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The spectrum of a Cayley graph defined over the symmetry group is observed to be equivalent to the KL spectrum of a discrete function when the Cayley graph is generated using that function. It is also observed that the autocorrelation of the discrete function using the symmetry group operator is equivalent to the adjacency matrix of the Cayley graph. In addition to the theoretical interests, the KL spectrum of a discrete multiple-valued logic function can have applications in compact function representation and the determination of function estimates with a reduced support set.

The main drawback of the data structure is the potential memory blow-up caused by certain functions. Therefore streaming has been proposed as a technique to efficiently evaluate operations on binary DDs (BDDs). The maximal memory usage can be controlled and therefore calculations can be carried out with a small amount of memory. In this paper we show how streaming can be extended to word-level decision diagrams (WLDDs) and for which type of diagrams streaming is applicable. A detailed description of streaming for multi-terminal BDDs (MTBDDs) is given. Experiments show the efficiency and the small memory needs for operations on MTBDDs.","PeriodicalId":340578,"journal":{"name":"35th International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic (ISMVL'05)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116545531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
