An Action Language Based on Causal Explanation: preliminary report (1998)
Enrico Giunchiglia and
Vladimir Lifschitz
Action languages serve for describing changes that are caused by performing actions. We define a new action language C, based on the theory of causal explanation proposed recently by McCain and Turner, and illus? trate its expressive power by applying it to a number of examples. The mathematical results presented in the paper relate C to the Baral---Gelfond theory of concurrent actions.
