Automating Coherent Logic

We propose to build an automated reasoning system for first-order logic (FOL) by translating reasoning problems to a fragment of FOL called coherent logic (CL) and then solving them by a fast problem solver for CL. Both the translation and the fast CL so lver are to be developed in the project. ...
