We develop formal foundations for notions and mechanisms needed to support service-oriented computing. Our work builds on recent theoretical advancements in the algebraic structures that capture the way services are orchestrated and in the processes that formalize the discovery and binding of services to given client applications by means of logical representations of required and provided services. We show how the denotational and the operational semantics specific to conventional logic programming can be generalized using the theory of institutions to address both static and dynamic aspects of service-oriented computing. Our results rely upon a strong analogy between the discovery of a service that can be bound to an application and the search for a clause that can be used for computing an answer to a query; they explore the manner in which requests for external services can be described as service queries, and explain how the computation of their answers can be performed through service-oriented derivatives of unification and resolution, which characterize the binding of services and the reconfiguration of applications.

An attempt at unifying logic and functional programming is reported. As a starting point, we take the view that logic programs are not about logic but constitute inductive definitions of sets and relations. A skeletal language design based on these c
onsiderations is sketched and a prototype implementation discussed.
The paper introduces a knowledge representation language that combines the event calculus with description logic in a logic programming framework. The purpose is to provide the user with an expressive language for modelling and analysing systems that
evolve over time. The approach is exemplified with the logic programming language as implemented in the Fusemate system. The paper extends Fusemates rule language with a weakly DL-safe interface to the description logic $cal ALCIF$ and adapts the event calculus to this extended language. This way, time-stamped ABoxes can be manipulated as fluents in the event calculus. All that is done in the frame of Fusemates concept of stratification by time. The paper provides conditions for soundness and completeness where appropriate. Using an elaborated example it demonstrates the interplay of the event calculus, description logic and logic programming rules for computing possible models as plausible explanations of the current state of the modelled system.
The paper introduces fuzzy linguistic logic programming, which is a combination of fuzzy logic programming, introduced by P. Vojtas, and hedge algebras in order to facilitate the representation and reasoning on human knowledge expressed in natural la
nguages. In fuzzy linguistic logic programming, truth values are linguistic ones, e.g., VeryTrue, VeryProbablyTrue, and LittleFalse, taken from a hedge algebra of a linguistic truth variable, and linguistic hedges (modifiers) can be used as unary connectives in formulae. This is motivated by the fact that humans reason mostly in terms of linguistic terms rather than in terms of numbers, and linguistic hedges are often used in natural languages to express different levels of emphasis. The paper presents: (i) the language of fuzzy linguistic logic programming; (ii) a declarative semantics in terms of Herbrand interpretations and models; (iii) a procedural semantics which directly manipulates linguistic terms to compute a lower bound to the truth value of a query, and proves its soundness; (iv) a fixpoint semantics of logic programs, and based on it, proves the completeness of the procedural semantics; (v) several applications of fuzzy linguistic logic programming; and (vi) an idea of implementing a system to execute fuzzy linguistic logic programs.
Types in logic programming have focused on conservative approximations of program semantics by regular types, on one hand, and on type systems based on a prescriptive semantics defined for typed programs, on the other. In this paper, we define a new
semantics for logic programming, where programs evaluate to true, false, and to a new semantic value called wrong, corresponding to a run-time type error. We then have a type language with a separated semantics of types. Finally, we define a type system for logic programming and prove that it is semantically sound with respect to a semantic relation between programs and types where, if a program has a type, then its semantics is not wrong. Our work follows Milners approach for typed functional languages where the semantics of programs is independent from the semantic of types, and the type system is proved to be sound with respect to a relation between both semantics.
Web service choreographies specify conditions on observable interactions among the services. An important question in this regard is realizability: given a choreography C, does there exist a set of service implementations I that conform to C ? Furthe
r, if C is realizable, is there an algorithm to construct implementations in I ? We propose a local temporal logic in which choreographies can be specified, and for specifications in the logic, we solve the realizability problem by constructing service implementations (when they exist) as communicating automata. These are nondeterministic finite state automata with a coupling relation. We also report on an implementation of the realizability algorithm and discuss experimental results.
