The Foundational Debate
Constructibility and complexity play central roles in recent research in computer science, mathematics and physics. For example, scientists are investigating the complexity of computer programs, constructive proofs in mathematics and the randomness of physical processes. But there are different approaches to the explication of these concepts. This volume presents important research on the state of this discussion, especially as it refers to quantum mechanics. This `foundational debate' in computer science, mathematics and physics was already fully developed in 1930 in the Vienna Circle. A special section is devoted to its real founder Hans Hahn, referring to his contribution to the history and philosophy of science. The documentation section presents articles on the early Philipp Frank and on the Vienna Circle in exile. Reviews cover important recent literature on logical empiricism and related topics.
Godel
Kurt Gödel was an intellectual giant. His Incompleteness Theorem turned not only mathematics but also the whole world of science and philosophy on its head. Shattering hopes that logic would, in the end, allow us a complete understanding of the universe, Gödel's theorem also raised many provocative questions: What are the limits of rational thought? Can we ever fully understand the machines we build? Or the inner workings of our own minds? How should mathematicians proceed in the absence of complete certainty about their results? Equally legendary were Gödel's eccentricities, his close friendship with Albert Einstein, and his paranoid fear of germs that eventually led to his death from self-starvation. Now, in the first book for a general audience on this strange and brilliant thinker, John Casti and Werner DePauli bring the legend to life.
Godel
Godel's Incompleteness Theorem suggested that logic would not allow a complete understanding of the universe, and this contemporary of Einstein established new theories that changed science and philosophy.
Computer Aided Systems Theory – EUROCAST 2022
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Computer-Aided Systems Theory, EUROCAST 2022, held in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, during February 20–25, 2022. The 77 full papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 110 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Systems Theory and Applications, Theory and Applications of Metaheuristic Algorithms, Model-Based System Design, Verification and Simulation, Applications of Signal Processing Technology, Artificial Intelligence and Data Mining for Intelligent Transportation Systems and Smart Mobility, Computer Vision, Machine Learning for Image Analysis and Applications, Computer and Systems Based Methods and Electronic Technologies in Medicine, Systems in Industrial Robotics, Automation and IoT, Systems Thinking. Relevance for Technology, Science and Management Professionals.
Kurt Gödel
During his lifetime, Kurt Gödel was not well known outside the professional world of mathematicians, philosophers and theoretical physicists. Early in his career, for his doctoral thesis and then for his Habilitation (Dr.Sci.), he wrote earthshaking articles on the completeness and provability of mathematical-logical systems, upsetting the hypotheses of the most famous mathematicians/philosophers of the time. He later delved into theoretical physics, finding a unique solution to Einstein’s equations for gravity, the ‘Gödel Universe’, and made contributions to philosophy, the guiding theme of his life. This book includes more details about the context of Gödel’s life than are found...

Computer Aided Systems Theory - EUROCAST'99
Computer Aided Systems Theory (CAST) deals with the task of contributing to the creation and implementation of tools for the support of usual CAD tools for design and simulation by formal mathematical or logical means in modeling. Naturally,thebasisfortheconstructionandimplementationofCASTsoftwareis provided by the existing current knowledge in modeling and by the experience of practitioners in engineering design. Systems Theory, as seen from the viewpoint of CAST research and CAST tool development, has the role of providing formal frameworks and related theoretical knowledge for model-construction and model analysis. We purposely do not distinguish sharply between systems theory and CAST an...
Europolis
Mit diesem Band beginnt eine Reihe, welche die wissenschaftlichen, kulturellen und sozialen Schriften von Werner DePauli publiziert. Im 1. Band werden die verkehrstechnischen und -planerischen Projekte dokumentiert, welche für die Zukunft Europas entscheidend sind. Alle Verkehrsträger werden behandelt. DePaulis Hovercraft-Trassen und Kanal-Projekte, seine Elektrifizierung und Automatisierung der Autobahnen, aber ebenso seine "kleinen" Erfindungen, wie bspw. der Dehmoment-Motor, sind Visionen einer technischen Evolution, deren Kern die Komplexität und Kreativität des Denkens bildet. Dieser Band ist Arto-Tech: künstlerisch aufbereitete Technik.
