Introduction to Logic Programming (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783031004582)

Michael Genesereth is a professor in the Computer Science Department at Stanford University and a professor by courtesy in the Stanford Law School. He received his Sc.B. in Physics from M.I.T. and his Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from Harvard University. Genesereth is most known for his work on Computational Logic and applications of that work in Enterprise Management, Computational Law, and General Game Playing. He is one of the founders of Teknowledge, CommerceNet, Mergent Systems, and Symbium. Genesereth is the current director of the Logic Group at Stanford and co-founder and research director of CodeX (the Stanford Center for Legal Informatics).Vinay K. Chaudhri is formerly a program director in the Artificial Intelligence Center at SRI International, and currently affiliated with the Stanford Computer Science Department. He received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from University of Toronto, Canada. Dr. Chaudhri is arecognized expert on artificial intelligence, including knowledgerepresentation and reasoning, question answering, ontologies, and knowledge acquisition. At Stanford his activities include promoting logic education for secondary schools, investigating techniques for rapidly acquiring formal knowledge and productizing intelligent textbooks. He consults with the financial industry on computable contracts and knowledge graphs. He has also taught courses on knowledge representation and reasoning and logic programming.
