On the unusual effectiveness of logic in computer science (English)
0 references
Logic occupies a central place in computer science. The authors focus on some (of the many) areas of computer science on which logic has had a definite and lasting impact. Specifically, the connections between logic and computational complexity, the successful use of first-order logic as a database query language, the influence of type theory in programming language research, the deployment of epistemic logic to reason about knowledge in multi-agent systems, and the connections between logic and automated design verification.
