Abstract

Design tasks typically deal with incomplete information and involve flexible reasoning patterns for which sophisticated control strategies are needed. As a result, the reasoning patterns are highly dynamic and non-monotonic. The logical framework introduced provides formal semantics of state descriptions of design processes based on (compositional) partial models and formal semantics of the reasoning behaviour based on (compositional) partial temporal models.
