A List of Successes That Can Change the World
This volume is published in Honor of Philip Wadler on the occasion of his 60th birthday, and the collection of papers form a Festschrift for him. The contributions are made by some of the many who know Phil and have been influenced by him. The research papers included here represent some of the areas in which Phil has been active, and the editors thank their colleagues for agreeing to contribute to this Festschrift. We attempt to summarize Phil Wadler's scientific achievements. In addition, we describe the personal style and enthusiasm that Phil has brought to the subject.
Logic and the Modalities in the Twentieth Century
Logic and the Modalities in the Twentieth Century is an indispensable research tool for anyone interested in the development of logic, including researchers, graduate and senior undergraduate students in logic, history of logic, mathematics, history of mathematics, computer science and artificial intelligence, linguistics, cognitive science, argumentation theory, philosophy, and the history of ideas.This volume is number seven in the eleven volume Handbook of the History of Logic. It concentrates on the development of modal logic in the 20th century, one of the most important undertakings in logic's long history. Written by the leading researchers and scholars in the field, the volume explor...
An Introduction to Substructural Logics
This book introduces an important group of logics that have come to be known under the umbrella term 'susbstructural'. Substructural logics have independently led to significant developments in philosophy, computing and linguistics. An Introduction to Substrucural Logics is the first book to systematically survey the new results and the significant impact that this class of logics has had on a wide range of fields.The following topics are covered: * Proof Theory * Propositional Structures * Frames * Decidability * Coda Both students and professors of philosophy, computing, linguistics, and mathematics will find this to be an important addition to their reading.
Functional Programming, Glasgow 1992
The Glasgow Functional Programming Group is widely recognised for its research in lazy functional languages. Once again this year, for the fifth time, we retreated to a Scottish seaside town to discuss our latest work, this time spending three days in Ayr. We were joined by a number of colleagues from other universities and from industry, with whom we have been enjoying fruitful collaboration. The workshop serves the dual purpose of ensuring that the whole group remains informed of each other's work, and of providing workshop experience for research students. Most participants presented a short talk about their work, supplemented by papers which appeared in a draft proceedings distributed at...
Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science 1993
This volume contains the proceedings of the 18th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science, MFCS '93, held in Gdansk, Poland, August-September 1993. The MFCS symposia, organized annually in Poland and the former Czechoslovakia since 1972, have a long and well-established tradition. Over the years they have served as a meeting ground for specialists from all branches of theoretical computer science, in particular - algorithms and complexity, automata theory and theory of languages, - concurrent, distributed and real-time systems, - the theory of functional, logic and object-oriented programming, - lambda calculus and type theory, - semantics and logics of programs, and others. The volume contains 12 invitedlectures and 56 contributed papers selected from 133 submissions.
Engineering Theories of Software Construction
This volume contains lectures presented at the 21st International Summer School on Engineering Theories of Software Construction (Marktoberdorf, Germany July/August 2000). Eleven contributions from professionals in industry and academia trace the path from the scientific foundations of programming theory through the development of toolsets and methods and on to practical application by working engineers. A sampling of topics includes unifying theories for logic programming, performance modeling using probabilistic process algebra, and extended static checking. The volume is not indexed.
