Abstract

This paper surveys the most representative approaches of knowledge-base revision. After a description of the revision characterization according to the AGM paradigm, the paper reviews different revision methods. In each case, the same example is used, as a reference example, to illustrate the different approaches. Closely connected with revision, some other non-monotonic approaches, like update, are briefly presented.
