    Abstract : In this thesis, I develop and investigate various novel semantic frameworks for deontic logic. Deontic logic concerns the logical aspects of normative reasoning. In particular, it concerns reasoning about what is required, allowed and forbidden. I focus on two main issues: free-choice reasoning and the role of norms in deontic logic. READ MORE

  2. 2. Relations in Dependent Type Theory

    Author : Carlos Gonzalía; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; formalized mathematics; relational systems; category theory; programming logics; constructive type theory; logical frameworks; relational database model;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates how to express and reason about relational concepts and methods inside the constructive logical framework of Martin-Löf's monomorphic type theory. We cover several areas where the notion of relation is central, and show how to formalize the basic concepts of each area. READ MORE

  3. 3. Reflection Principles in Computational Logic

    Author : Pierangelo Dell'Acqua; Jonas Barklund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Datalogi; Computing Science;

    Abstract : We introduce the concept of reflection principles as a knowledge representation paradigm in a computational logic setting. Reflection principles are expressed as certain kinds of logic schemata intended to capture the basic properties of the domain knowledge to be modelled. READ MORE

  4. 4. The human dimension in TQM : learning, training and motivation

    Author : Su Mi Park Dahlgaard; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Kvalitetsstyrning; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The overall aim of this dissertation is to study and to explore the human dimension in TQM with focus on learning, training and motivation. The exploration of the evolution of TQM depict the theory of TQM as shaped from a narrow mechanistic apporach to a more humanistic apporach with focus on the human dimension thgough Japanese managerial practices inspired by ideas from western theoreticians.
