The '''Logic File System''' is a research file system which replaces pathnames with expressions in [[propositional logic]]. It allows file metadata to be queried with a superset of the [[Boolean algebra (logic)|Boolean]] syntax commonly used in modern [[search engine]]s.
 
The actual name is the Logic Information Systems File System, and is abbreviated LISFS to avoid confusion with the [[log-structured file system]] (LFS). An implementation of the Logic File System is available at the LISFS website [http://lfs.irisa.fr].
 
It is intended to be used on Unix-like operating systems and is a bit difficult to install, as it needs several non-standard ocaml modules.
