A decision procedure for a decidable fragment of generalized constraint diagrams
<11>
This paper appears in a special issue of JVLC, containing extended versions of papers presented at Visual Languages and Logic 2009; the VLL 2009 publication is entitled Transforming Constraint Diagrams. Since its publication, the results in this JVLC paper have been extended to provide a decision procedure for more expressive diagrammatic logic that involves syntax with second-order semantics [Howse4]. Such procedures are necessary for the practical application of diagrammatic logics to real-world problems and it is only recently that diagrammatic logics with this level of expressiveness have been developed. JVLC is A rated in the Australian ERA/CORE list.
