Dynamics and Management of Reasoning Processes

This volume, the 6th volume in the DRUMS Handbook series, is part of the after­ math of the successful ESPRIT project DRUMS (Defeasible Reasoning and Un­ certainty Management Systems) which took place in two stages from 1989-1996. In the second stage (1993-1996) a work package was introduced devoted to the topics Reasoning and Dynamics, covering both the topics of 'Dynamics of Rea­ soning', where reasoning is viewed as a process, and 'Reasoning about Dynamics', which must be understood as pertai
