Future Data and Knowledge Base Systems will require new
functionalities: richer data modelling capabilities, more powerful
query languages, and new concepts of query answers. Future query
languages will include functionalities such as hypothetical
reasoning, abductive reasoning, modal reasoning, and metareasoning,
involving knowledge and belief. Intentional answers will lead to
cooperative query answering in which the answer to a query takes
into consideration user's expectations. Non-classical logic plays
an important role in this book for the formalization of new queries
and new answers. It is shown how logic permits precise definitions
for concepts like cooperative answers, subjective queries, or
reliable sources of information, and gives a precise framework for
reasoning about these complex concepts. It is worth noting that
advances in knowledge management are not just an application domain
for existing results in logic, but also require new developments in
logic. The book is organized into 10 chapters which cover the areas
of cooperative query answering (in the first three chapters),
metareasoning and abductive reasoning (chapters 5 to 7), and,
finally, hypothetical and subjunctive reasoning (last three
chapters).
