Modal and Temporal Properties of Processes

In recent years, model checking has become an essential technique for the formal verification of systems. With a clarity of presentation and its many illuminating examples, this book makes this technical material easy to grasp. It is perfectly suited for an advanced undergraduate or graduate class in formal verification and will serve as a valuable resource to practitioners of formal methods.

Reimagining Museums for Climate Action

This book is not a typical academic edited volume. Nor does it subscribe to the usual dictates of an exhibition catalogue. It does not seek to provide a comprehensive overview of work on climate change and museums or claim to have discovered One Quick Trick to Solve the Climate Emergency. Instead, the book reflects the main characteristics of the Reimagining Museums for Climate Action project: it is collaborative, distributed, conversational, subversive, nomadic and, at times, playful. The arguments it puts forward emerge through dialogue and speculation just as much as they respond to and build on empirical research. In this sense, the book is perhaps best seen as a partial and in many ways...

Concurrency

This volume is a collection of papers on topics focused around concurrency, based on research work presented at the UK/Japan Workshop held at Wadham College, Oxford, September 25-27, 1989. The volume is organized into four parts: - Papers on theoretical aspects of concurrency which reflect strong research activities in the UK, including theories on CCS and temporal logic RDL. - Papers on object orientation and concurrent languages which reflect major research activities on concurrency in Japan. The languages presented include extensions of C, Prolog and Lisp as well as object-based concurrent languages. - Papers on parallel architectures and VLSI logic, including a rewrite rule machine, a graph rewriting machine, and a dataflow architecture. - An overview of the workshop including the abstracts of the talks and the list of participants. The appendix gives a brief report of the first UK/Japan Workshop in Computer Science, held at Sendai, Japan, July 6-9, 1987.

Foundations of Software Science and Computational Structures

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Foundations of Software Science and Computational Structures, FOSSACS 2010, held in Paphos, Cyprus, in March 2010, as part of ETAPS 2010, the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software. The 25 revised full papers presented together with the abstract of the keynote lecture were carefully reviewed and selected from 86 full paper submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on semantics of programming languages, probabilistic and randomised computation, concurrency and process theory, modal and temporal logics, verification, categorical and coalgebraic methods, as well as lambda calculus and types.

Introduction to Computation

Computation, itself a form of calculation, incorporates steps that include arithmetical and non-arithmetical (logical) steps following a specific set of rules (an algorithm). This uniquely accessible textbook introduces students using a very distinctive approach, quite rapidly leading them into essential topics with sufficient depth, yet in a highly intuitive manner. From core elements like sets, types, Venn diagrams and logic, to patterns of reasoning, calculus, recursion and expression trees, the book spans the breadth of key concepts and methods that will enable students to readily progress with their studies in Computer Science.

The War Mountains

On this battlefield, there are no victors...only survivors. In the rugged mountains of Yugoslavia, the dogged Marshall Tito and his Partisans are on the run, pursued by their most feared enemy: the lethal SS Division Handschar—a fanatical band of Muslim warriors fighting alongside the Nazis. Soon the entire region will be in German hands. To turn the tide, the Allies send a commando team, led by Major Walter Merritt, to destroy a nearly inaccessible high-altitude bridge in the mountains, a key link in the Handschar supply chain. Blowing up the bridge will be difficult—but getting there may be impossible. After parachuting into Yugoslavia, the team must fight a running battle alongside Tito’s forces in a life-or-death struggle against a foe who would rather die than give up the fight….

Automated Deduction - CADE-21

A veritable one-stop-shop for anyone looking to get up to speed on what is going down in the field of automated deduction right now. This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Automated Deduction, CADE-21, held in Bremen, Germany, in July 2007. The 28 revised full papers and 6 system descriptions presented were selected from 64 submissions. All current aspects of automated deduction are addressed, ranging from theoretical and methodological issues to presentation and evaluation of theorem provers and logical reasoning systems.

Handbook of Philosophical Logic

It is with great pleasure that we are presenting to the community the second edition of this extraordinary handbook. It has been over 15 years since the publication of the first edition and there have been great changes in the landscape of philosophical logic since then. The first edition has proved invaluable to generations of students and researchers in formal philosophy and language, as well as to consumers of logic in many applied areas. The main logic article in the Encyclopaedia Britannica 1999 has described the first edition as 'the best starting point for exploring any of the topics in logic'. We are confident that the second edition will prove to be just as good! The first edition w...
