Abstract
We have developed a paraconsistent logic program called an Extended Vector Annotated Logic Program with Strong Negation (abbr. EVALPSN), which can deal with defeasible deontic reasoning and contradiction, and applied it to safety verification and control such as railway interlocking safety verification, traffic signal control etc.. In this paper, we introduce how to apply EVALPSN to discrete event control with taking an example called Cat and Mouse. Generally, event control can be represented as deontic rules such as it is forbidden for both the cat and the mouse to occupy the same room simultaneously, and the control must deal with contradiction to avoid unexpected system states. We show that such a discrete event control can be easily formalized in EVALPSN and implemented.
