Model-Based Reasoning in Science and Technology Abduction, Logic, and Computational Discovery / edited by Lorenzo Magnani, Walter Carnielli, Claudio Pizzi.

The volume is based on the papers that were presented at the international conference Model-Based Reasoning in Science and Technology (MBR09_BRAZIL), held at the University of Campinas (UNICAMP), Campinas, Brazil, December 2009. The presentations given at the conference explored how scientific cogni...
