contents Deontic logics are formalisms for reasoning over norms, obligations, permissions and prohibitions. Input/Output (I/O) Logics are a particular family of so-called norm-based deontic logics that formalize conditional norms outside of the underlying object logic language, where conditional norms do not carry a truth-value themselves. In this paper, an automation approach for I/O logics is presented that makes use of suitable reductions to (sequences of) propositional satisfiability problems. A prototypical implementation, named rio (reasoner for input/output logics), of the proposed procedures is presented and applied to illustrative examples.
