Strong Equivalence and Program's Structure in Arguing Essential Equivalence between Logic Programs
Yuliya Lierler · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2019
Answer set programming is a prominent declarative programming paradigm used in formulating combinatorial search problems and implementing distinct knowledge representation formalisms. It is common that several related and yet substantially different answer set programs exist for a given problem. Sometimes these encodings may display significantly different performance. Uncovering {\em precise formal} links between these programs is often important and yet far from trivial. This paper claims the correctness of a number of interesting program rewritings.
