Automated reasoning programs are successfully tackling challenging problems in mathematics and logic, program verification, and circuit design. This two-volume book includes all the published papers of Dr Larry Wos, one of the world's pioneers in automated reasoning. It provides a wealth of information for students, teachers, researchers, and even historians of computer science about this rapidly growing field.The book has the following special features:(1) It presents the strategies introduced by Wos which have made automated reasoning a practical tool for solving challenging puzzles and deep problems in mathematics and logic;(2) It provides a history of the field — from its earliest stages as mechanical theorem proving to its broad base now as automated reasoning;(3) It illustrates some of the remarkable successes automated reasoning programs have had in tackling challenging problems in mathematics, logic, program verification, and circuit design;(4) It includes a CD-ROM, with a searchable index of all the papers, enabling readers to peruse the papers easily for ideas.
This book shows you — through examples and puzzles and intriguing questions — how to make your computer reason logically. To help you, the book includes a CD-ROM with OTTER, the world's most powerful general-purpose reasoning program. The automation of reasoning has advanced markedly in the past few decades, and this book discusses some of the remarkable successes that automated reasoning programs have had in tackling challenging problems in mathematics, logic, program verification, and circuit design. Because the intended audience includes students and teachers, the book provides many exercises (with hints and also answers), as well as tutorial chapters that gently introduce readers to the field of logic and to automated reasoning in general. For more advanced researchers, the book presents challenging questions, many of which are still unsolved.
Veterans, military personnel, and their dependents make up more than one third of America's population. Each year, public and private agencies set aside billions of dollars in financial aid for these groups (plus their spouses, children, grandchildren, and parents). If you have ties to the military, how do you get your share? The answers are in this directory: FINANCIAL AID FOR VETERANS, MILITARY PERSONNEL, AND THEIR DEPENDENTS. Here, in one place, you'll find a complete description of all federal, state, and privately-funded programs (1,200 in all) that are open to veterans, military personnel, and members of their families. This funding can be used at any education level, from high school through postdoctorate, for study, research, travel, career development, emergencies, etc. Published biennially since 1988, this directory has been hailed as authoritative by Midwest Book Review and the definitive resource by Military.com!
